Agreed, and I respectfully disagree with everyone else replying to you.

Relying on your car for your job is a much wider criterion than driving as your job. In car-centric places like the US (outside of the big cities) that's probably 99% of the population. Couple that with the piss poor social safety net and losing your license literally means starvation.

This still doesn't mean I endorse or agree with people driving distracted in any way. If revoking someone's license meant removing them from the road but not destroying their life, I would do that in a heartbeat.
