It is supposedly illegal here to text or talk while drive, though I see people doing it all the time. I see seatbelts enforced more than people jabbering on cell phones or texting while driving.
I even see cops doing it, as they pass me on the parkway going at least 90 MPH.
(mind you, I am going at least 75, 10 mph over the limit, so I keep cool about it

)
Laws are a joke, only enforced when it becomes a political /media hot issue.
