I seen this in the news today. And since I haven't read all the comments on here, and therefore don't know if anybody else has covered this, Georgia has these same laws too.
If you are caught holding any phone, whether texting or talking, it is a fine. But it seem that law hasn't worked for a lot of people. I still see people at stop signs and red light texting and talking with their phones in the hands. And you know when the red light turns green and everybody drives off but one car still sitting there, they are on the phone.
I still see people holding their phone in the middle of the steering wheel and texting while driving. And even some real brave souls with their phone to their ear talking. I guess the fines are not much to worry about with some people. IDK
While some think they can multi-task, that is not true. Our brains work pretty similar to every computer. It does thing in a sequential routine. It only seems like we can do multiple thing at the same time... We merely split the time up between multiple tasks not doing any of them to our true potential.
I refuse to use a phone while driving. My life and passengers and even others on the road around me, are too important to take for granted. JMHO
