Cell phone use should be outlawed for all drivers

My thoughts about any cell phone use while driving is: What did we do before there were cell phones? We waited till we got to a real telephone whether it was at home, the office or, if really necessary, we would look for a pay phone if we were shopping or traveling

This law to prohibit new drivers from using one I don't think goes far enough. It should prohibit all people, not just new drivers or young ones, from using a cell phone to talk or text while driving. The article in Sunday's Annarbor.com said people that opposed it were worried about loss of freedoms. This is no different than laws about against drunken driving.

Is it so important to use one to text or talk while driving that you can't wait till you can pull off the road and talk or text safely?

Here's something to think about the next time you have the urge to text while driving: Honk if you love Jesus ... text while driving if you'd like to meet him!
