What? This is not for some people!
I think any kind of law dealing with things that have to do with freedom, in any measure, is very telling because of who is NOT compelled to follow it. People who want to make sure they can operate their vehicle in a safe manner are prohibited, in many states, from using their phone, however, the people who have the most going on in their vehicles, such as policemen and ambulance drivers, can still talk on the phone!
I agree with those who say this should be a state and/or local issue.
