    If they can read your car tag form space, they should be able to make cell phones in operatable while moving! Just an old man’s opinion.

    Where in the article did it say anyone was on a cell phone? Is a reader assuming?

    Florida needs a 100% hands-free cellphone law
    I know how bad these roads are and I live .07 miles from that intersection in Rodgers Ridge (as per GoogleMaps)
