The risk of speeding vs. the risk of staring at your phone. Try doing them for equal times and see what results in a crash…

Apples and oranges my friend.
I am quite confident that most people do not think we should be comparing the risk of speeding to just veering into oncoming traffic, phone or not.
That is a fair point, but unfortunately there is no good solution to that... otherwise we wouldn't need laws and their enforcement in the first place.
It's all about risk... if people are speeding too often and too fast that it's becoming dangerous (which I 1000% agree with), then I think more strict enforcement is warranted.
Conversely, we don't outlaw going outside just because someone could run you over... the risk is not high enough. But I think the risk of injury or death from speeding is very high.
