California Bans Cell Phone Use While Driving

The new law will go into effect on July 1, 2008. I guess I am ok with this new law?

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger will sign a bill today that bans handheld cell phone use while driving. California will be the fourth state to put such a ban in place.

Fines for breaking the new law will be $20 for the first offense and
$50 every time after, but none of the tickets will impact the driver’s
insurance. Many cars sold today feature their own built-in hands-free
devices, and we’d expect that by July 2008 many more vehicles will come
with the technology standard.
