My Sister had an unwelcome visitor

Glad no one was hurt. Here in AZ they just made it illegal to use any handheld device while driving, some exceptions, but texting is a NO NO, thing I don't get is they will not enforce it for 2 years, They say they need time to educate the drivers .like WTH The highway has over head signs , theres TV radio.Theres drivers ed. theres Bill boards, and theres AZDOT emails that they can send to every driver in the state. I can see no reason for a 2 year delay in enforcement. I think 90% of all drivers would be aware of this law with in 6 months.

I'm sure drivers will be aware of it. Whether they follow it is another matter. New Jersey has had that law for several years. I still see people talking on hand held phones.

Well what tic's me off is their waiting 2 years before they start to enforce it. No need to wait that long. I've been cut off so many times by idiot talking of texting on the phone.

Years ago there was a scam where people caused an accident by forcing a rear end accident.

It seems like idiots on cell phones or texting while driving would be natural prey for these scams.

My curiosity has me wondering how many of the laws on these are "distracted driving" as opposed to "using electronic devices" laws.

In my travels people have been seen causing inconvenience to other drivers by reading a bood while driving well below the speed limit on an Interstate Highway.
