The state of West Virginia is tightening its driving laws beginning Monday. Starting July 1, drivers can be pulled over for talking on a phone without a hands-free feature. Violators face a $100 fine for a first offense. West Virginia is also upgrading its seat belt law. Motorists can be pulled over for not wearing one starting July 9. That violation had previously been a secondary offense.

Well, I do hope WV has better luck than Maryland with people obeying the law of not using the phone/txting in the car. There are still too many people in Cumberland who think the law was made for someone else.
