Science Mag: Why cell phone bans don't work looks at Self-reported and observed risky driving behaviors among frequent and infrequent cell phone users.
The suggestion is that the reason that cell phone bans haven't changed accident rates is that frequent cell phone users are asshole drivers, with or without the cell phone. Correlation is not causation.
And more bad law ends up on the books. Sigh.
