(Because half the drivers here don't have the common sense to do it without being forced to. At least 50% of the remaining half have cell phones stuck in their ears and don't have a clue as to what's going on around them.)Obviously, this has pressed one of my hot buttons! :^

The same law applies in Florida also, but there wasn't much press on it's implementation.Just made my last trip through Houston in the LD. The outer loop tollway is a nice but a long bypass if your headed for San Antonio. The 610 loop is a rough ride for the LD. Taking I 10 straight through downtown can be an adventure with all the construction, narrow lanes and usual traffic. Count on an hour at best to get through the city.MalcolmWas Florida, Now Texas
