Over 10,000 people died in drink driving incidents in the US along last year. Distraction from mobile phones also led to thousands of accidents, should they be illegal too?

Let's now throw the baby out with the bathwater.

When using any type of vehicle in public areas: Absolutely. And they already are in many places [1] (at least under certain conditions).

His point (I assume) isn't that these things aren't or shouldn't be illegal while driving, it's that you can make it illegal to drive under the influence without banning being under the influence.

I think he meant mobile phones being illegal.
