Chances: One in Five?
Today I scanned all the bills that have been proposed this session limiting cell phone use and/or text messaging while driving. There are five. It seems that if five different Legislators are running the same or similar bills then the problem they are attempting to address is obvious. The two bills making the most progress only ban text messaging (Sen. Hillyard's & Rep. Clark's). But there is a little hope. HB 95 by Rep. Riesen passed through a House committee after an amendment specifying that it is alright to use two way radios. This should satisfy the concerns of HAM radio operators. It looks like it may just take five bills to get one thing done, let's hope after all that they do it right.

Sooooo, does only one eventually make it, or could there end up more than one about the same thing?
