your 'all of them heithen [heathen] cell phones should be banned' answer made me lol.
anyway.
i live in maryland, and my state has long since passed that bill, but it doesn't stop anyone from using it, because the law isn't really enforced. so, it must not be a big issue if even the cops don't care?
on a more personal level, i think that cell phones should only be partially banned. hands free devices gives you both hands on the wheel and more freedom of movement, which in turn gives you better access to necessary driving skills. :3
