These days everyone's text messaging - and it seems like they're doing it all the time! And that even means while driving. You may or may not text behind the wheel, but many people do, and it is a widely ignored traffic offence. In fact, there's no law prohibiting you from talking or texting on your phone while behind the wheel.
So the practice continues, and from the perspective of one concerned father it's getting worse. John Brackett - who has children at Holy Redeemer Primary School on North Front Street - said he couldn't take it anymore so he staged a one man protest in front of the school this afternoon. He says he wants a no-phone zone.
Why hasn't the our government make cars a no phone zone, they are always looking for ways to tax people, why not set a law on something that matters. While driving, one needs full concentration in the traffic but people still find their ay to multi task. Sure talking on the phone while driving isn't that bad, if you're wearing an ear piece, but texting while driving, that's just disrespectful to the law and other civilians. Not only do you hold up traffic but you also run the risk of knocking someone down.... To avoid this from happening just make your cars a NO PHONE ZONE people.
