The new bill doubles the amount of hours required behind the wheel “during drivers’ education programs from six hours to twelve and also increases the number of supervised hours a new driver must spend with a parent or other experienced driver from 12 hours to 40 hours.”
I can’t imagine this bill will make many teens stop using their cell phones while driving. I believe adults are the ones to worry about most when it comes to driving while on the cell phone. Requiring teens to drive 40 hours with a parent or “experienced driver” seems to be a preventative measure. Teens are going to drive however they feel like but at least we can try and improve their driving skills as much as possible.
