As a driver you have many responsibilities such as keeping you and your passengers safe and obey laws such as the speed limit. Texting isn’t one of the responsibilities of the driver. Respond to the text when you aren’t driving.

If the text you need to respond to is SO important, there are other ways to send messages without taking your eyes and hands away from the road. For example there is Siri and other voice control programs. Or you could talk to the person using speaker function or even a Bluetooth.
