Texting Ban In West Virginia

{Charleston, West Virginia}...Beginning Sunday, July 1st, motorists in West Virginia will be pulled over and ticketed for texting while driving. Drivers can be cited for hands-on cell phone use. But, that violation alone cannot trigger a traffic stop until mid-2013. Violating the law is punishable by a $100 fine for a first offense. West Virginia has put up signs along highways and taken other steps to alert people to the ban.
