This is why there should be ENFORCED laws on cell phone use in the car.
Ten will get you twenty the rear-ender was yammering away on a phone
that for most of my life was wired to the wall in your house. Don't get me
wrong, cell phones are great, if they are turned off in the car. These things
should be used for emergencies only while driving. And then it would be nice
if people would pull off the road. But all this freedom up front is going to
make it nearly impossible to EVER enforce this going forward.

I can hear it now..."$hi+...I just rear-ended some dumb lady that stopped in front of me."

Just passed in Washington state if you are talking with the phone to your head or texting in your car you will be pulled over and ticked and if you are under 18 (i think) no hands free equipment can be used. I like this new law.

I'd be ticked if I got pulled over as well.

This law exists in Florida as well. Similar at least. Reality is cops, down here at least, have a lot bigger things to respond to. I do think FHP tries to enforce it, but even they are stretched thin.
