I've thought about that as well. Some of these cars also let you dial from the OEM interface, passing the commands to the phone via bluetooth.
It's a very fine-edged argument. It also interesting that some of these laws are being pushed at the very same time pushback is occurring on other laws that essentially allow an officer to pull over a motorist for very thin reasons.
I'm not saying that nothing should be done, but I'm not seeing this as a fully thought-out solution either.
