The move has been aimed at curbing drunk driving and has been celebrated by Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) as a significant step towards preventing deaths from drunk driving accidents.
I wish they would spend more time and resources addressing the most dangerous situation on the roads. People who can’t put down their friggin cell phones and concentrate on driving. That is what forced me to make the difficult decision to sell my motorcycle, too many close calls with texters. It has also become a problem with golf cart drivers in the Villages.
