What Do You Think of Banning Cell Phone Use While Driving?

The NH House approved a bill on Wednesday aimed at toughening the state's existing law.

The New Hampshire House of Representatives voted this week to approve a ban on all hand-held cell phone use while driving. The bill now goes on to the Senate.

There's already a law on the books that bans sending texts while driving, but the new law would also cover reading text messages, web surfing, GPS use and dialing telephone numbers.

What do you think? Should all hand-held cellphone use be banned? Or do you think the proposal goes too far or would be too hard to enforce? Leave a comment with your thoughts below.
