Highway 41 is known to cause disastrous accidents because of heavy traffic and its narrow lanes. Now, authorities say that the road should be widened so as not to cause further harm to motorists as discussed in “Dangers on Highway 41”.
This particular accident-prone highway has caused fatalities and numerous injuries to vehicle occupants and pedestrians. It is high time to do something in order to avoid road accidents that victimize motorists.
The local government should immediately put a stop on these senseless deaths by doing necessary repairs or widening that should further benefit the motorists travelling on Highway 41.
The author of the blog “Laws Prohibiting on Phone use while Driving” discussed the new Wireless Communications Device Law that bans writing, sending, or reading text-based communication while driving.
This compliments the other wireless telephone law that was passed last July 2008 that prohibits all drivers from using handheld wireless telephones from driving.
The laws are all primary enforcement; which means that even without other traffic violations, a police office can cite a driver for using a handheld phone while driving.
The base line for a first offense is $20 and $50 for subsequent offenses.
With penalty assessments, the fine can reach up to triple the original amount
This is done by the government in recognition of the dangers of unfocused driving because of distractions like mobile phones.
Driving requires full attention because a distracted driver is not only putting his life in danger, but of those around him as well.
