Not so in my opinion. Nothing will stop or prevent stupidity. You can ban texting while driving but people will still do it.

Where I live there is a saying when the roads are flooded... "turn around don't drown". If you try to drive through a flooded road you will get fined thousands of dollars. people still do it and need to be rescued. People are always dying... it is all over the news... and the news has been saying "turn around don't drown" for years. People still do it and risk their lives. People never learn! Survival of the fittest. So strict driving laws and fines won't stop anything.
