Default Attention California Young-ins... hang up and drive!

...cell phones are now illegal to use while driving for teenager drivers:

One step closer to being illegal for everyone. Which I'm torn about. I don't have a problem driving and talking because I honestly try not to be on the phone while driving and tend to tell people to call me back... but I swear I see some dumbass chatting away to the detriment of their car control at least once a day and I'd love to see those assholes pulled over.

I think headsets have been mandatory for over a year in CA and this year in NV. Where is out resident law enforcement officer?

Is it headsets, or hands-free?

Not that it matters... the problem with cell phones is the lack of focusing on what's happening in front of you, but whatever.
