SHELTON -- The Washington State Patrol is testing young drivers. It is challenging them to drive while talking on cell phone calls and texting. In two weeks a new law bans hand-held cell phones in cars. It'll be a $124 fine.
The law will be a secondary infraction just like seat belts. They have to pull you over for something else like speeding and then they can ticket you also for not using a hands free device.
July 1st is the date of the change for phones. Texting while driving has already been outlawed since the start of the year.
For more information about the new talking and texting law visit our online library.
