Hi to all,
I have a new twist on cell phone lunacy. Starting on July 1st in California a driver must be over 18 and have a hands free cell phone if he/she is driving. The Highway Patrol and all police agencies are very strict on this new law. Get caught and there is no leniency -- no excuses -- a $100 fine for the first offense; $200 for the second -- and so on. This all makes great sense to me.
Yet, anyone, a teenager, an adult, anyone -- can still text message while driving. They can still surf the internet on their cell phone while driving a car.
But, don't talk on the cell phone without a hands free setup.
Which do you think is more likely to cause an accident on the freeway -- an adult talking on the cell phone -- or a teenager texting or surfing the web while driving?
California -- the land of fruits and nuts -- and this proves it. Of couse San Fran Nan (Nancy Pelosi) doesn't do much for the reputation of California either.
God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,
Bill
