Bill Would Ban Cell Phone Use on South Carolina Roads
In Columbia South Carolina Sen Yancey McGill has introduced a bill to ban motorists from using cell phones while driving.

The bill cites rising driver distraction and notes many states are considering similar measures. National Conference of State Legislatures reports over half the states weighing restrictions and more than 90 million people use wireless service.
