The new law signed by Governor Ron DeSantis , allows officers to stop anyone who is just texting. According to the Miami Herald, The texting ban does not apply to a “driver using a navigation device or to a driver who’s vehicle is stationary.”

Here’s how the new law will be eased in: Warnings will be issued starting October 1st, and tickets will be issued starting January 1st. For a first time offense it will be $30 and for a second offense it’s $60.

Also:  Vaping indoors is no longer allowed.  So blowing that ridiculous blueberry smoke into the faces of coworkers is now a no-no.
