Today, our Massachusetts legislators are debating how severe of a cell phone ban should be enacted into law. Rest assured law-lovers, that there will be at least a ban on texting while driving. This debate has been going on publicly for a while now and really heated up when the “child in a man’s body”, working as a trolley driver for the MBTA, smashed into the trolley ahead of him. This man-child with a cell phone fettish became the scape goat for the T's inept hiring and training practices and it worked like a chiming cell ringer as everyone focused on the texting issue rather than the real problem.

Senator Steven Baddour, the Senate chair of the Legislature’s Joint Committee on Transportation was recently quoted “This generation clearly doesn’t get it. It’s not the same as talking on a cell phone.”, while discussing the Senate’s reasoning for including a “budget” amendment that would ban writing and reading text messages while behind the wheel. Well guess “what’s up” Mr. Senator, you and your colleagues “clearly don’t get it” because talking on the cell phone IS the same thing as texting. Sure, we can all go through the semantics by stating that you obviously have to look away from the “task at hand”, driving, in order to text, but let’s be realistic they’re both distractions. Quite frankly, the Senator’s quote is the best argument yet, for NOT imposing a ban at all.
