texting while drive ban
I thought this was kind of a dumb law, since texting while driving will only technically be banned by name after this. Most of the people who text while drive will do it anyway, since it's extremely hard for police to verify if someone actually is texting while driving. Legislation very rarely saves lives, and this law will only inhibit people's liberties. I think that if you can safely text while not looking, and look at the road and drive at the same time then texting while driving is fine. People can also just lie about whether they were texting or doing something else to get out of the fine.

Ya most people still would text and drive they really don't care what people say and there is really no way police can stop it people get away with worse stuff I don't think they could catch someone texting.
ReplyDeleteI agree this law is somewhat noneffective but it has a good intention. Also, I doubt a lot of people can safely text while not looking at the road.
