Texting And Driving Ban For Interstate Bus And Truck Drivers Proposed In Washington
I think everyone knows it is just a matter of time before all texting and driving is outlawed across the U.S. Florida is examining a law to ban the practice as have many other states who issue traffic citations to distracted drivers. These traffic tickets can be especially costly to those drivers who make their living behind the wheel.
The federal government has proposed a ban on all text messaging by interstate truckers and bus drivers while behind the wheel. Issuing traffic tickets for commercial drivers can be a powerful punishment for men and women whose job is dependent on a clean driving record. The biggest debate on the issue has centered on how the ban would be enforced. In Florida traffic tickets for texting and driving would be a secondary violation.
