Texting While Driving Banned in Arlington

Texting behind the wheel may soon be a Class C Misdemeanor in the city of Arlington thanks to a new ordinance moving forward.  Also banned will be tweeting or using any other mobile applications besides making phone calls.

If passed by the final vote next month, violators will face a $200 fine.

According to a city report, there were 6,094 wrecks in Arlington between May 2010 and 2011.  Of those, 6,049, 824 were caused by distracted driving.   Arlington leadership hopes this ban will help decrease the number of distracted driving accidents.  Both Austin and San Antonio have bans on texting while driving.
