I'm not sure where you draw the line here. A lot of actions, unlocking your phone, looking at GPS, dialing a number etc… are all just as bad as texting. Even using voice commands or a headset is certainly distracting.
Eating a burrito is pretty distracting, tacos even more so.
Perhaps the emphasis should be on laws that punish the outcome over laws that target specific acts. I do think that focusing on younger drivers who are establishing behavior may be a good thing.
