my phone is encrypted.. hell most newer android devices can enable encryption..
Solution is simple.. Just turn off or restart the phone.. It comes up to the encryption key screen.. then just willingly turn your phone over to them.. They cant bypass the encryption to unlock the phone, and they cant compel you to give them the key.. by law you just complied by allowing them to examine your phone, and they wont be able to get a damn thing off of it..

How wonderful, I have people looking up zebra porn.
Fine agreed about the texting. However what's mine is mine and if I don't want what is mine touched then it will not be touched. Not as long as I'm breathing.

Disable what? The OP means the police for phone sucking system and they get all your information inside it Driving is a privilege and there are no rights that infringe on safety. Hand the freaking phone over in any crash and prepare for jail.
Only excuse, is the person that jammed their up their ass before they went driving. They had the right idea.

Correct. Driving is a privilege. Unreasonable search and seizure is a right however that is protected by the Constitution.
Answer what happens in the other scenarios above. IE passenger using your phone, pulling over to use your phone, bluetooth, ect.

So you want GPS to disable a phones ability to text and email... What about passengers why should they be unable to use thier phone.. what about people taking a taxi or a bus?
You are insane..

I am against texting/using phones while driving. I realize it's dangerous.
At the same time, holy crap this is an invitation to wrongful convictions, infrignement of our 4th ammendment and way too much abuse of power.
I hate this idea.
If you want to prove someone was texting while driving subpoena their cell providers records to determine if at that time and location the phone was sending data. If not then beat it. That is evidence based and due process. This stupid by system would be a joke. So I guess actually that means we should expect it,

I got rear-ended a couple years ago and the guy said he was switching the station on the radio. Officer said, "Oh, so you were distracted then?". Just like that, he's part of this statistic and it had nothing to do with cell phone use.
Bullshit numbers, being used to push unconstitutional intrusion into our privacy. Same shit, different day; remember how suicides usually get lumped into "gun deaths"? Shame on those of you who would sacrifice the privacy rights of all for the misdeeds of a few. Have we, as gun owners, learned nothing?!? They persecuted us and sacrificed our rights upon the alter of Safety and, just as in this case, they spun, twisted and padded the "facts" to do it.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions... and assholes on cell phones, but there has to be a better solution to this problem.

Since you ave a Smart phone and a Data Plan, you must have excess disposable income.
We want more of that disposable income because we are the guberment and we care about you.
We know that we can spend your money better that you can.

The question I have, is how can you tell if I was holding the phone in my hand and texting, or instead using Siri hands free via the apple car play I have in my car?

Traffic laws aren't about safety.. if they were, people would be going to jail for simple infractions..
They only care about the money and how much they can try to pull out of your pocket..

Exactly, the whole point of BT and Carplay is to use the device without touching it while you're driving.

Evidently, the accident is the probable cause?
You were in an accident so you must be breaking the law.
The zombie sheep of NY will line right up behind this too.
