Note to Drivers: Lose the Phone (and Lipstick)

Note to Drivers: Lose the Phone (and Lipstick)

Good advice to drivers in Southern Village as well. It is inconceivable to me how anyone would risk an accident by doing ANYTHING else while driving around Southern Village streets other than being a 100% driver. The number of drivers with cellphones in one hand and something less than 100% devoted to driving is well beyond startling, especially mothers and fathers with young children in the back seat. It is difficult to imagine action much more irresponsible than that.

Here is the text of the new Connecticut law, which takes effect today. At the very least, anyone from Southern Village who might ever be driving in Connecticut ought to read it. What is inexplicably permitted here will lead to serious law enforcement action if you get caught in Connecticut.
