This is a practice nobody will defend, therefore we will make it illegal and collect lots of fines.
Cue Palpatine cackling unlimited power.
That’s still mainly a West Coast “we’re smarter and wiser than all you in flyover country” thing still or have Yankees become unpottytrained too?
People are funding
They serve no other purpose
We need more to spend
— a politician’s haiku
Forget it. It’s not, not voting. The overwhelming vote in NYC and the other major population centers outvotes normalcy in the great middle of the state every time. Occasionally when a dhimmicrat Governor even disgusts the liberal dhimmicrats, you get a swamp republican like Pataki or Rockefeller who are basically Dhimmicrats in RINO clothing
Time to consider getting a smart watch or Google glasses for travel to NY. NOT!
No talking while on the john

I have a funny story for you. My neighbor went to a Denver basketball game—can’t remember the name of the team. She was sitting on the toilet when the woman in the next stall said hi. My neighbor friend said, um hi? And proceeded to have a one way conversation with her. They both finished at the same time, and the woman in the next stall walked out, still chatting on her cell phone! LOL
How will they tell if you were just browsing or changing the music on your phone? Wouldn’t that require an illegal search?
Ridiculous. If someone needs to be so oblivious that they’ll walk into traffic without looking or walk into a telephone pole, that’s their destiny. Laws won’t help... but they might generate some civic revenue!
Exactly. Let’s pass a law making it illegal to mow down pedestrians.
I’d like to see how this law would be enforced by the way.
This is NOT about safety.
It IS All about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ call it what You want: Fine, Tax, Safety Fee it’s all the same- moving Your MONEY INTO THEIR POCKET AND THEY WANT IT ALL !!
Make it illegal for DeBlasio to pick up groundhogs.
The news outlet reports there’s no clear evidence indicating that the use of personal electronics while walking causes accidents, but New York lawmakers are still considering fines for using them.
Fines can range between $50 to $150 depending on the number of offenses.
Just looking for more sources of income to support the STATE.
I once joked on a music forum that I read that some of the word’s best inventions occur while on the toilet. I said, if that’s the case, my husband will be coming out with a work of pure genius! LOL
Singapore did.
Cash grab.
Apparently taxpayers aren’t fleeing the state fast enough for Albany.
Excellent! Bravo!
Coming Soon:
Bill making it illegal to breathe while breathing.
Also awesome!
Lots of great poets this morning :-)
The more Albany tightens their grip, the more taxpayers will slip through their fingers.
NEWSFLASH
New York to pass law banning chewing gum and walking.
