More nonsense to get us ready for a cell phone ban. Don't buy into it. The government only wants it for revenue enhancement and a chance to take a warrantless peek to make sure you aren't carrying a bit of pot in the trunk or anything else our overlords consider naughty.

I was almost run off the road by some dingbat talking on a cell phone. She was completely oblivious at how close she came to killing both of us and just drove on her merry way.

Cell phone drivers are the most clueless, inconsiderate jerks on the road. It's amazing to see hordes of people leave the office, and the minute they're headed for the car... out comes the dopey-phone.

I turn mine OFF when I get in the car.

You're right, we don't need another behavior modifying nanny-state law.

People need to voluntarily stay the hell off their cell phone when they're driving. This problem is getting worse. The people who poke in the left lane with their blinker on are either about 80 year old, or on their damn phone.

After having been nearly sideswiped by a teen on a cellphone, I am for an all out ban on talking on cellphones while driving................

I am IN FULL SUPPORT OF a national law banning the use of cellphones while driving. I can honestly say that 90% of the time when I see someone driving like a total idiot, usually SLOW in the middle or far left lane and weaving, he or she has a phone attached to his/her ear.
