If you didn’t know already, Delaware began it’s handheld cell phone ban while driving on January 2nd.
On July 6, 2010, Delaware Governor Jack Markell signed into law a bill banning the use of hand held cell phones, pagers, PDAs, blackberrys, laptops, games or portable computers while driving. Under the new law, which goes into effect January 2, 2011, drivers are not allowed to talk without using a hands-free device, read, write or send text messages, email or use the Internet while operating a motor vehicle.
If you get caught reading a email or reading this blog while operating a motor vehicle, it’s going to cost you $50. That would be one expensive email.
