Sorry, You Can't Make Driving Totally Safe

The lege has passed yet another nanny-measure, this time its the Senate passing a ban on hand held cell phones while driving. There would be a $50 fine for anyone caught.

I guess the sentiment is good, but its yet another bad bill. You simply can't force people to pay attention to the road. If you want to ban hand held cell phones to save lives on the road, then you better get around to banning talking on a hands free cell phone, eating, the radio, talking to passengers, billboards, good looking women walking down the street, animals, and any other conceivable distraction you can think of.
