I can see, somewhat, where this type of legislation is coming from. Car collisions are a leading cause of death among many young people, and a lot of accidents are simply caused by driver negligence. I am opposed to nanny laws, but this does not seem to be one - I think eliminating as many distractions as possible on the road would seriously lower the amount of accidents occuring a year. I don't think a driver should have a choice to drive safely or not, whereas I think they should be able to wear a seatbelt if they felt like it without penalty.

I don't see how this could be enforced effectively, though. Perhaps this is just a hollow piece of legislation aimed at pleasing worried mothers.
I agree mostly but I don't think you said it all quite the way you intended.
