NJ may ban texting while driving

New Jersey drivers who insist on sending text messages on their cell phones or personal digital assistants may find themselves on the wrong side of the law if legislators approve a new bill.

The plan is in response to a recent Nationwide Insurance survey finding that <A HREF="http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070326/tc_nm/newjersey_texting_dc">one in five drivers are texting while driving,</A> a figure that rises to about one in three among people aged 18 to 34, said Democratic Assemblyman Paul Moriarty.
