TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - An author of a new law that toughened the state's texting-while-driving ban wants to require motorists to go fully "hands-free" if they are using wireless phones. The proposal (HB 249) was filed a day before a change takes effect that prohibits motorists from using hand-held wireless devices in designated school crossings, school zones and work zones. Since July 1, the Florida Highway Patrol has issued 463 warnings for texting and driving, while law enforcement statewide has issued 605 tickets. Tickets will start to be issued Jan. 1, punishable as a moving violation with three points assessed against the driver's license. In a news release Monday, the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles noted an effort is underway among state agencies, the Florida Sheriffs Association, the Florida Police Chiefs Association and AAA to ensure motorists are aware of the change.
