DC just instituted a new program that fines drivers using phones in thier car if the phones arent hands free.
Its a 100 dollar fine and one point off the offenders liscence. I agree with that, as distracted people are more likely to hurt other people at 40+ mph.
What gets me steamed is the click it or ticket campagin which targets drivers who dont use seat belts. Its a 200 dollar fine and 2 points of your liscense.
so when did recklessly endangering the lives of dozens of people suddenly become less dangerous than endangering just one person...
