Governor Would Sign Car Phone Ban

Governor Charlie Baker is calling on  the state legislature to ban the use of all handheld electronics by  drivers.  

Current state law bans texting while driving, but talking on a  phone while driving is allowed.  

Baker says distracted driving is a  growing problem that needs to be addressed.  

He says people need to use  Bluetooth technology, or pull over to call, text or program their GPS  devices.

The State Senate has already passed the proposal but the bill faces an uncertain future in the House.
