Don’t break the law and it costs you nothing.

In the general case, it is impossible not to break the law. Eventually you will break the law. What is your advice then?

Become a better driver then, and put down the damn phone. There is zero chance of “accidentally breaking the law” if you are actually paying attention to driving.

I said "in the general case"

Maybe, you do not live within a life that has less resources (public transportation comes on time or at all, traffic lights that work, traffic lights timing works & Etc.) than average person, less traffic (affects the previous resources being delivered properly) & from your profile not disadvantaged by living in The USA. All three of those affect me, here in South Fl., if I had a job to get to under those above conditions, plus having take of so many responsibilities at home- 2-elderly roommates, would probably cause me to speed.
