Government taking action

Most people know that texting while driving is wrong, dangerous and in some places its even illegal. Yet why do some people still text and drive like this one man who was caught on tape
Luckily the Government is now making laws thats making it illegal for bus and commercial truck drivers to text while drive.
On Tuesday, the federal government formally barred truckers and bus drivers from sending text messages while behind the wheel, putting its imprimatur on a prohibition embraced by many large trucking and transportation companies. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/01/26/AR2010012603238.html
Even though its only a start for the national problem some states like maryland, new hampshire, or tennessee. Hopefully it will catch on to other states and save lives.
