New York State has passed the USA’s first state law banning motorists talking on hand-held cell phones(手机).The ban will begin November 1,although drivers caught using hand-held cell phones will be given only warnings during the first month.
First-time violators(违法者)will face a $100fine.A second time call for a $200fine and every violation after that will cost$500.
At least a dozen localities(地方)have established bans,starting in 1999;and 40 states have had bans proposed but not passed.At least 23 countries,including the Great Britain,Italy, Israel and Japan,ban drivers from using hand-held cell phones.
There are about 115 million cell phones in use in the United States and more than 6million in New York State.
"To think that I’m not going to use cell phone when at the same time I can still use my laptop(膝上电脑),I still can read a paper,I can still change my pants(裤子)while driving 65 mph.I think there’s just something wrong,"an official said.
Other critics(批评)noted that other things like eating,drinking coffee and applying make up while driving posed(造成)at least as much of a concern(关注).They suggested that the ban include a broader range of things.
