Tougher Penalties for Texting While Driving in Va.
e Virginia State Crime Commission has endorsed tougher penalties for illegal cigarette trafficking and texting while driving.

The panel made those two proposals part of its 2013 legislative agenda at its final meeting of the year Wednesday.

The commission will ask lawmakers to increase penalties for people who buy large quantities of cigarettes in Virginia for resale on the street in states that have a higher tobacco tax. Experts have told the commission that cigarette smuggling has dramatically increased because it's more profitable than drug dealing, and the penalties are not as harsh.

The real money is in selling detergent on the street. Who knew the poor love soap? They always seem so smelly.

I never text. I dont even usually carry a phone. I get that it's not smart to text while driving, but what about reading, putting on makeup, shaving, tying your shoe, eating, writing, peeling an orange... Are laws going to be made for every single thing that could be as distracting as texting?

Watched a Negro pass me while texting and driving today on 123 Northbound just before Zion around 3:30PM.

Light change caught him mid-text and he slammed on the brakes, skidded, swerved into the right lane and barely missed killing a couple folks.

Hope you die soon and help improve the DNA pool you dumb fucking idiot!

"Texting while driving also is a growing problem"

Bulls****. It's a way to grow more police powers. If it's such a problem, how come the accident rate in the DC area overall, including VA, has gone down?
