How long before Federally 'mandated' DWT laws?

A study calls phone use risky as driving drunk.

Drivers who talk on cell phones may be just as dangerous as those who drink.

That's the sobering conclusion of a study published yesterday by University of Utah researchers who monitored 40 men and women on a driving simulator.

Drivers using hands-free phones were no better than those with the handheld variety, confirming previous studies. That suggests New Jersey's ban on cell-phone driving, which allows hands-free use, is only partly effective.

How long before the Feds starting telling states to ban talking on cell phones while driving or else risk losing highway funding, much like they do with encouraging strict DWI laws?

Oh, ohhhhh....

Study: Even one drink can be dangerous

SEATTLE, June 30 (UPI) -- A University of Washington study warns that even a single strong drink can make a person "blind drunk" and impair the drinker's driving abilities.

Really folks, who did not already know that with even one drink SOME impairment would take place? May I see a show of hands?
