Don’t pull over on the shoulder. You’ll get a fine for that to. you’ll have to travel to the next exit, get off the highway and find a “legal” place to park.
won’t be long and there will be a kill history app for your phone. Get pulled over, hit the button and BOOM all your call history and txt messages for the past day is gone.
That does not remove the one at the phone company.
“won’t be long and there will be a kill history app for your phone. Get pulled over, hit the button and BOOM all your call history and txt messages for the past day is gone.”
That won’t even BEGIN to kill the history of your activity.
I have very mixed feelings about the proposed ban. The old “your rights end where my rights begin” effect exists here - I don’t want me or my car to get totaled by an idiot texting. I think there should be a compromise - although even “hands free” dialing has been shown to have some effect on driving ability, that should be permitted. There are kits available that hook up to your phone via Bluetooth and work pretty well retrofitted to a car - a friend has one and it was very cool and only cost $100 or so. If people JUST GOTTA use a phone in the car, they can get one of these or buy a car with this built in.
Anyway - somehow, the vast majority of us managed to do rather well throughout the 20th century without a damn phone glued to our faces 16 hours a day.
