Comment on My colleague Berehanu

So on his most recent post, Berehanu wrote over the usage of cell phones while driving. I think that the idea of the police department and of the state to raise the penalty for using a cell phone while driving and while in a school zone is a great idea. This will allow for users and drivers to be more aware of what is going on around them and be aware of their surroundings. We tend to see an increase in accidents and in rates caused by the use of cell phones. The fine for passing a school bus when loading and unloading children should be increased, because one is never aware of when a child may come behind the bus to to cross the street or when kids may appear out of anywhere. It may not be a solution to the use of cell phones while driving but it can definitely increase the awareness of everything that is happening around us,
