It’s that simple.  So give it a try today.

There are now 30 States that ban texting while driving, 11 of these laws were enacted in 2010.  It's pretty obvious that if you're looking down at your phone rather than at the road that you're more likely to get into trouble.  Yet people still continue to do it.  Next time you have the urge, use your voice to dicate your message through Voice Assist, rather than using the keyboard on your phone.
