OK here is it. I have to do a project/report in one of my class. Our topic is text messaging while driving. Recently in Cincinnati, they passed a law that states it is illegal to text message while driving, other cities and counties have passed similar laws. Currently the state of Ohio is trying to past a few different bills that will make it illegal to use any text message device or talking on a phone while driving.
The bills are as followed.
Pending legislation (2009-10):
Ohio House Bill 415
Ohio House Bill 266
Ohio House Bill 261
Ohio House Bill 262
HB 270
HB 130
Ohio Senate Bill 164
