Distracted Driving

As the holiday season approaches, more and more people will be driving to the homes of family and friends.  The Department of Transportation's website on "distracted driving" provides a state-by-state map with the laws pertaining to calling and texting while driving.

Currently, the state of Ohio has no laws banning texting while driving.  As we posted in July, House Bill 99, which would ban texting while driving, is currently under consideration.

Several Ohio cities, including Columbus and Toledo, have banned texting while driving.
