I have no problem with ticketing people for texting while driving regardless of what the cops are doing as well.  The less people doing it the better, shits dangerous.

Those are not phones, those are radio transmitters used for getting updates anyways using cellphones while driving definitely not allowed in any country I guess and I use my car's inbuilt bluetooth to stay connected and I talk all the time man  Wink

Mistaken, some states ban it some states do not.

They don't use cell phones (in their cars at least). They have radios, but I doubt they have to use them just for pulling someone over, I would think it's more automated (maybe it's registered as a stop when they look up your plates).

I meant more so on the phone with their friends.. lol.
How often does that actually happen, though? When they're not busy violently breaking up an anti-police-brutality protest, they usually do genuinely care about public safety.

I drive by cops all the time on their phone..  I'll I'm trying to say is if they want people to stop texting they are going to have to stop the people enforcing the rule from doing it or it makes no sense.

When the cops still use their phones while driving how do they expect people to take this seriously... He is pulling you over for talking on the phone while being on their cell pulling you over... Like... wtf
