ADVISORY/Experts Available to Discuss New York Ban on Cell Phone Use While Driving.


Business Editors

ADVISORY...

--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 1, 2001
TOPIC: Starting today, New York police officers plan to enforce the statewide
law that bans drivers from using hand-held cellular phones while they are on
the road, according to an article by The Associated Press. Offenders will get a
warning and a brochure until Dec. 1. However, after Dec. 1 offenders will have
to pay a $100 fine. Until March, courts are expected to dismiss tickets for
motorists who can prove they have purchased hands-free phone devices, the
article says. Currently, 42 other states are considering similar bans on cell
phones and driving. EXPERTS: ExpertSource can offer several highly qualified
