ImageThere are some places where you are already prohibited from using your cell phone while driving (CPWD).  I suppose you could get pulled over by a cop there.  It’s alarming.  It makes me think that lawmakers are out of control and lacking in common sense.  We don’t need the police to cite everyone who uses his CPWD.

I don’t disagree when advocates of similar legislation cite statistics which show that those who use their CPWD are dangerous drivers.   Refer to “common sense” above.

I just happen to think my freedom is more important than their need to control a few irresponsible drivers.   Current law enables a cop to pull over anyone for reckless or erratic driving.   Cops need to confront all erratic drivers, especially those who use their CPWD. 

What next, I can’t change my CD, tune my radio, smoke in my car?  Can I talk to my wife?  It’s a slippery slope, so let's not go there.  Ouch, that hurts, honey!
