Law enforcement need to set an example...
When I am out and about I have a great vantage point from a high bicycle seat to see drivers gabbing on cell phones. My own personal survey when I counted one day had approximately 1 out of 4 drivers yakking on their blueberries, blackberries and array of other electronic devices.Parents may tell their children to not smoke or do drugs, however if the parents themselves are doing these things, it's hard for the children to take them serious. In the same respect one of the biggest perpetrators of the law is law enforcement themselves.. I pass many police cars and continually see the officers of the law talking on their cell phones when driving.
We don't have law enforcement smoking pot or snorting coke and then arresting citizens for that same violation, however in contrast we do have officers writing citations for cell phone usage when the officers themselves do not adhere to the same rules.
They say, "monkey see, monkey do," one way to curb cell phone usage while driving is for the men and woman in blue to be examples and practice what they preach. For the law to work it must be adhered to by everyone.
