California bans texting while driving

We know that talking on your mobile phone while driving is dangerous business, but everyone seems to have overlooked that texting can be just as hazardous. Everyone except California and Arnold Schwarzenegger that is. On Wednesday, he signed a bill and made it into a law that bans texting while driving. Arnie has always lived on the edge in reel life, but it seems he pays a lot of attention to safety in real life. According to SFGate, the bill SB28 will ban texting while driving and forces drivers to keep their "hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road," said Schwarzenegger in a written statement. Other states that are also following this law are Louisiana, Minnesota, New Jersey, Connecticut and Washington. I'm sure the cell phone service providers are not very happy, this will lead to a slight cut in their profit!
