Dear all,

a quick reminder that the new cell phone ban went into effect as of midnight last night. The key points are:

1) No one under the age of 18 can use a cell phone in a vehicle at all (calling, texting, etc.).

2) No one can text (sending or receiving/reading) while driving (you can pull off the road), nor can you text when you're at a stop sign or stop light.

3) No one can use a cell phone to check emails, navigate using a cell phone's GPS (unless the phone is mounted), search the internet, etc.
