These laws just make people feel like they saved someone and goes warm fuzzies to those who support them. I feel the same way about implementing laws like this as I do about gun control after 20 people of the 300 million in our country are killed. Realistically, ticketing cell phone users will do nothing for our safety...

Except make people look at the flashing lights of the person pulled over and get into a wreck themselves.


Rubbernecking should be a ticketable offense while driving.

People will be looking for cops so they can hide their phone too, nobody will ever look at the road again!

Why don't we just cut to the chase....ban cars. No more texting while driving, drunk driving, no need for auto insurance, no more high speed wrecks....hell lets go back to when salty was born so we can ride horses and plow our fields with oxen!

No lawyer that ever read Salty Cajun and saw your crap would represent you, anyway.

If it should become law...they won't need a search warrant.

[SULPHITE]

Do you have a link? Does it state that as a citizen I forfeit my property and rights if a LEO tells me to hand it over?

I'm with salty, I can care less who wears their seatbelts. But, texting is putting others at risk such as my 3 young kids. I see people dn near go over the causeway daily while fooling with their phone

They have studies showing texting is at least as bad as drunk driving.

Those studies have shown that a person texting while driving has the attention span and reaction ability of a person that is at least at the legal alcohol level. Blow it off if ya want, but, it's a major problem that is totally out of control. Sadly, when enough innocent people die, maybe they'll do something about it.

Sounds to me like you're using the gun control argument.

Can I have more pepper and less salt please? The excess salt sucks the flavor out of the meal and leaves me sick to my stomach. My heart and prayers go out to the victims family and friends in this horrible accident. Rest In Peace.
