Cellphone Law
I still see it all around me. It has been almost a year since CA began enforcing a law restricting handheld cellular phone usage while driving. The "texting" loophole was later closed. So how the hell is a cop to enforce this law? My guess is that they don't. Just today I witnessed a young gal glancing down at her lap repeatedly while at a stoplight. Another, older woman, was blatantly yakking away with the phone up against her left ear, the one facing out the window for the world to see (but perhaps invisible to law enforcement). I had to pass a vehicle yesterday that was going questionably slow, only to find a woman carrying on an animated conversation on her phone. Sure, people will hedge their bets against getting caught... no different than breaking other traffic laws I suppose, but this one's harder to detect and probably why they do it.
I am no fan of phones, which leaves me with a feeling of being left out on (figuratively) giving a finger to the Man. I now make up for that by proceeding through red lights when clear, perform rolling stops, speeding, and sex when I can get it.
