(Harrisburg) -- Restrictions on teen drivers have become law, while a ban on texting awaits the governor's signature. But, one piece of the distracted-driving platform remains. Driving while talking on handheld and hands-free cell phones is still legal in the state. Democratic Representative Eugene DePasquale of York County says he supports of banning the practice. "I’ve never had an instance, I mean, where I know someone literally didn’t get some international peace agreement done because they weren’t able to make a call from a cell phone. If it’s that important you can pull over and make the call." If the state Senate had its way, the ban on texting while driving that recently passed the General Assembly would have also made outlaws of people who drive while using a hand-held cell phone. But, that part of the bill was cut in the House. While the House Majority spokesman says passing a hand held cell phone ban is still a priority, only a dozen more voting days are left this year for lawmakers with several major proposals competing for their attention.
