For the discussion on texting and driving:
Even if one looks at his phone for as long as he looks at his mirror, it is still different than looking at the mirror. The mind does not change its thought pattern very much when looking at the mirror, whereas the texting is a huge jump. No longer is defensive driving the goal, but rather driving and thinking about what is going on at work or at home. If you run into someone while looking at your mirrors, you will still have a much better reaction time than when texting.
