Texting and talking on the phone are distractions for drivers. Most driving environments require a drivers undivided attention.

Added: More and more localities are passing, or have already passed, laws making this activity illegal in their municipalities, and several state legislatures are also considering legislation that would be effective state-wide.

Could your boyfriend be cheating if he is constantly on his phone texting and claims he is talking to his sister?

It's a possibility he is, but I have my suspicions. I have a brother and I highly doubt he'd be talking to me even by phone that often and I'd be lucky to get a call a week from him. Most men are not big on talking or texting on the phone unless it's with their buddies and it's to do with something they are interested in. I'd check his phone and see what you can come up with. Good luck Marcy
