New cars can be equiped with a "signal blocking" feature, that blocks all cell texting activity as soon as the car begins to move. Yes it could be over riden and that car could emit a signal indentifying the car to be sent an auto fine/ticket much like paying your toll with an epass.
Any number of solution can be devised if the problem was realy being taken seriously.
Amber alert took an awful long time to convince our represenatives (lobbiest lovers) to break away from whoever was pushing to not have such a tool, to actual enact it.
