How should Texas regulate texting and driving laws?

I think that texting might be one of the biggest distractions for drivers today. On the road, I see a lot of people with a phone on one hand and the steering wheel in the other. If, like most people, you plan on not crashing into trees, then I suggest that texting while driving is not a good idea. Some of these people even have children in the backseat! That is not OK! Texas should enforce a strict law that bans using cellphones while driving. Cameras should be at every stoplight, and these should capture the plate numbers of drivers that are on their phones. Citizens should also be encouraged to report any cases of texting while driving to police. The punishment should be a hefty fine for those who text on the road and endanger those around them.
