Sure driving distracted and mowing down kids is a fundamental constitutional right…. You sure about that…?

Is it so damn hard to put the phone down for 20 minutes while driving? The fact that some US states legally let you use your phone at a stop light/sign is absolutely mind boggling.

No, but being innocent until proven guilty is. You don't have to prove your innocence, the prosecution needs to prove you're guilty.
