Texting and driving is illegal in NC, and many other states.

I was surprised to learn in WI that using the cell phone and driving also was illegal.
I noticed far fewer drivers actually using cells there than I would see here.

Then again, it's Wisconsin, not unusual to see people driving 55 in a 55 zone.
I got pulled there, twice, going 62 in a 55 on a 4-lane divided highway.
