[QUOTE="dru, post: 1675018, member: 3047"] pretty much what everyone else here has said...ineffective legislation. Will be extraordinarily difficult to properly enforce w/o significant curtailment of rights (read here: that's exactly what will happen) and will fall into one of those classes of laws that tend to generate disgust for the legislators and their enforcers. Fundamentally I much prefer laws that prohibit actions that are [I]malum in se[/I] as opposed to actions that are [I]malum prohibitum[/I] and this law falls squarely into the latter category. (Proper) use of a cell phone in a car is not any more dangerous than a myriad other tasks that a driver often performs whilst driving. I +1 GTG idea about penalty enhancements for accidents or other losses sustained due to a driver yapping away on cell phone [/QUOTE]
