Finally!

A new law goes into effect in July ‘08 in California. It will be illegal to drive with a cell phone to your ear.

There have been thousands of accidents on the road in California since the advent of cell phones. Hundreds have been injured or killed because idiots think they can walk and chew gum at the same time. Well, that ain’t really so hard, but trying to dial a cell phone and hold a conversation while maneuvering through traffic and PAYING ATTENTION to both is not so easy a task.

I had a 1988 Thunderbird totalled because of a cell phone driver. It wasn’t pretty. Thank heavens I’m still here to post about it.

Anyway, this is a step in the right direction. It needs to be done universally. I mean, like moonwalkers, even. Get that freakin’ thing off your face! You’re an accident waiting to happen, ferpetesake.

Well, now you gotta. At least in California :P
