Today the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers said it will support legislation that bans the use of cell phones -- whether for sending text messages or making phones calls -- by those operating moving vehicles. The AAM concedes that any distraction while driving is unsafe.

Many states across the U.S. have already enacted hands-free laws and texting bans.
