Texting Ban Works In PA

03.11.13 |

One year after the texting and driving law was implemented in Pennsylvania, local and state officials have said the law is difficult to enforce, but has prevented some people from pulling out their phones while driving. Preliminary data from the state Department of Transportation shows crashes involving drivers with phones decreasing, however distracted driving crashes increased across the state in 2011. Distracted driving includes everything from putting on makeup to adjusting the radio to using a phone.
