Should The Government Ban the Use of Cell Phones Behind the Wheel?
You see it everywhere. People driving with a cell phone to their ear. Chances are we have even done it. But, should the government be able to ban the use of a cell phone in the car? Some have said yes, given that it is a distration. Others have said no, because it is an over-extension of government.
Word from the Louisiana Senate Transportation Committee is that the effort to do it in the state is dead this year. What would you think about it if it comes around again?
