1. Your grammar sucks

2. It's proven that young drivers have more accidents then other drivers and more often then not it's due to the driver not paying attention i.e. cell phone, radio, 3 friends in the car etc.

Personally I think it's a very good idea and I'm all for bannning all cell phone usage while the car is in motion without a earpiece/headset.

I get cut off and have to deal with more idiots that are paying attention to their cell phone then the road

Myth Busters...
Drunk or talking on the phone: talking on the phone while driving they made more mistakes then when they were drunk.

If it becomes law your going to see a lot of cars pulled over on the side of the road haha

I am going to stick a fucking light on the top of my car and start pulling over cops. Almost every fucking cop I see is talking on their phone.

On a side note... I caught a cop speeding through a neighborhood yesterday, I do not have a radar but I would estimate him going around 50mph.

I know I say this on every thread about driving laws.

Make everyone take a some defensive driving schools to get their license and these problems go away.

I don't know a single track guy that drives while talking. If anything they talk while driving and give the road their full attention.

a little while ago I saw something on the news about some lady in an SUV that had her baby in the backseat in a babyseat. Another car was coming to the T intersection she was traveling on and he had a stop sign. The guy didn't even slow down and t-boned the SUV, right were the baby was sitting, killing the baby.....he was dialing on his cell phone.

Failure to obey a street sign was all he got.

Some people just can't handle it, and if that means no one can do it, its fine with me.
