Excellent comments and many do display a good degree of common-sense as well which is rare on this website. 😉
If the person has not enough common-sense to know that being distracted while crossing a busy street puts them at risk, then let them be at fault and not the drivers in this case.
No ban is needed.
Use all the money that major urban cities pocket and put it towards highly visible signs at the "high risk" intersections. Make it totally clear through warnings and consequences of actions that create the dangers.
Then your "pedestrian" that is caught using a device (tons of security and traffic cams record it as well....hence they cannot deny they were not using it when the accident occurred).
You play with fire, you get burn...

Is all about good 'ol fashioned American greed. That lawmaker just want to make a stupid law to get his name out there. And the folks suing for getting hurt want money, just like that woman who fell in the fountain while texting. (on YouTube)

If people would just step back and say, you know what it is MY FAULT. I was wrong. It's that easy, but greed has the upper hand in most cases. People think only of themselves.
