Louisiana Highway Safety Commission Head Wants Cell Phone Ban

By: Import User
Updated: January 7, 2009
No cell phones while driving. To many in Louisiana, that would be unimaginable. To the head of the Louisiana Highway Safety Commission, it would be a positive move. Jim Champagne says he does not belive a state law would do much good because "you can`t legislate common sense." However, Champagne says he will bring the issue up to lawmakers and see how they might address it. There were seven deaths and 22-hundred injuries last year in Louisiana as a result of cell phone use while driving.
