"Distracted Driving Laws" They do exist in Maine!


So it's clear to me that almost everyone in this world thinks texting while driving is worth it. Well guess what? It's not at all. People are getting killed because of this and it needs to stop now! Maine now has the "distracted driving" laws. Maine's cell phone law was enacted in 2003. The reason and point of these laws is to get people to stop doing what they are doing. Texting while driving or even just answering a phone call is very dangerous. Not only are you risking your life but you're also risking the life of everyone else around you. A lot of innocent people are dying from it. Do you know anyone who texts while driving? Do you try to get them to stop? I bet you didn't know that there has been 12,000 crashes each year due to distracted driving. That is absolutely ridiculous. Maine sets fines up to $500 for distracted driving. Distracted driving means doing something that is unnecessary while driving. A phone call or a text is not worth someones life!
