It's about damn time!

Yesterday California announced that they are banning the use of cell phones in moving vehicles starting July 1, 2008. You can still use a hands free cell phone, and I think this is OK, as it is no different than talking to someone in the passenger seat or listening to the radio. Now if we coould only get the same law passed in Utah. My only beef with the current law is that the penelties aren't stiff enough. $20.00 for a first offence and $50.00 for the second isn't enough to persuade people to stop. Treat it like a DUI, and impose stiffer fines I say!
