Texting zones?? darkangel218 Sep 2013 #1
Well it should be interesting. It is now illegal to text and drive in NYS. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #2
So will be in FL, from Oct 1st. darkangel218 Sep 2013 #3
It will be interesting to see how they pull it off. I am sure they will get money from tickets. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #4
I suspect there will be traffic jams and accidents from so many trying to pull into those zones. darkangel218 Sep 2013 #5
I don't drive so it won't matter to me but I don't walk and text because I will walk into something. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #6
Lmao!! i dont walk and text either :) darkangel218 Sep 2013 #7
I have poor vision so I am not allowed to drive. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #8
You dont really need to drive in NY. darkangel218 Sep 2013 #9
In most parts of NYC that is true but not all. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #10
What could be so important that can't wait until you get to your destination?? frylock Sep 2013 #13
There are plenty of rest areas on highways. darkangel218 Sep 2013 #14
They used to be called "rest areas." djg21 Sep 2013 #15
Does anyone see irony here? Laffy Kat Sep 2013 #11
I see your point. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #12
K&R! Sounds like a really good idea to me! Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #16
I tend to agree. It is a major issue in this state. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #17
It's a major issue everywhere and has caused some tragic accidents Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #19
I can not walk and text. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #20
I don't think I could, either, have enough trouble with it when I'm sitting still, LOL. Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #23
I hate my cell phone anyway. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #24
I just try and remember to take mine with me, have only had one for a little over a year. Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #27
I wish I could just throw mine away. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #28
Well, you don't have to answer it, LOL. Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #32
Sometimes I don't answer it. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #34
Btw how are your allergies up there? hrmjustin Sep 2013 #18
It's still pretty bad. This summer has just been the worst! Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #21
I know I am dying here and my asthma makes it worse. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #22
Thanks! Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #25
I used my Asthma machine this morning when I woke up. It helped. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #26
You mean a nebulizer? I have one of those, too. Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #29
Thank God for Nebulizers! hrmjustin Sep 2013 #30
I totally agree, has saved me more than once. Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #31
I hate having to go to the hospital for Asthma. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #33
That's why it's so important to have a nebulizer. Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #45
The Claritin is working well again today so hopefully I won't need the nebulizer. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #48
How do you feel today? hrmjustin Sep 2013 #35
It's a whole lot warmer today, but it's not too bad. Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #36
I took a Claritin and I have been fine all day. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #37
And I just took an Advil Congestion, LOL. Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #38
No Otto appears to be there but limited. Still to be determined. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #39
Let me know how that turns out. Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #40
It is interesting watching the reactions of people to this new change. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #42
A lot of people are glad they're cracking down on abusive jury comments Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #43
Well I hope thingsa work out well. I do miss Meta at times. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #46
Otto took out someone so it is still around. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #41
Thanks! I'm awfully pleased to know that! Rhiannon12866 Sep 2013 #44
Yeah I was glad to see that he is still there to take care of our friend. hrmjustin Sep 2013 #47
