DOT bars commercial drivers from texting

I don't see a problem with that. The guy that hit my trailer was texting. He didn't even see the marker light right next to his mirror.

 

EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now if only they would expand on that and do the same for idiots yapping on a cell phone while eating a meal off a plate balanced on the steering wheel. No joke, I've actually seen that.

 

NY already has that covered. One of their few hits.

 

OMG, ya know the world is in trouble when the government has to regulate COMMON SENSE

 

Yah can't regulate stupid. Oh darn, does this count as texting? HAHA!

 

When they outlaw texting, only outlaws will.....

 

Just a feel good rule, very, very hard to enforce. I drive into NYC about 2 to 3 times a week. NY has a strong to cell phone while driving law, but it is never enforced. I see the cops on the phone all the time driving down the road.
