No Texting while driving or else states or S-O-L

WASHINGTON (AP) _ States would be required to ban driving while
texting or face the loss of highway funds under legislation being
pushed by a group of senators.
New York Sen. Charles Schumer and three other Democrats plan to
unveil the bill on Wednesday. It follows a study by the Virginia
Tech Transportation Institute that found that when drivers of heavy
trucks texted, their collision risk was 23 times greater than when
not texting.
Fourteen states and the District of Columbia ban texting while
driving.
Under the Senate proposal, states would need to outlaw texting
or e-mailing while operating a moving vehicle or lose 25 percent of
their annual federal highway funding.
