Texting ban passes final Ohio House vote
Keep those thumbs on the steering wheel. A bill that would outlaw texting behind the wheel for all drivers, as well as the use of almost any other wireless electronic communications device for young drivers, is headed to Gov. John Kasich's desk. The House voted 82-12 Tuesday across party lines to make Ohio the 38th state to criminalize texting while driving and the first state to take every cell phone, computer, or other wireless device out of the hands of teen drivers.
