  1. I am glad this passed. It won’t stop all accidents from those using their phones while driving, but will hopefully stand as a warning to casual offenders on how dangerous that practice really is.

  2. Public Safety cannot be legislated…Has been tried and tried with limited to no good results..These safety issues need to start at home, school and employer….Life style changes needed…Government cant fix anything ! Not all vehicles have blue tooth for a navigation device or other needs not involving texting, face time etc while driving…

  3. I think this is a good idea. This is a huge problem on the roads, as I have almost had people crash into me while staring at a phone. I would bet that the phone manufacturers already have the technology to limit or disable certain functions while a car is moving. If not, they should be pushed to develop it.
