OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — An Oklahoma legislator vowed Tuesday to keep pushing for a ban on texting while driving after the House scuttled the proposal for the third time this session.
The latest text ban attempt came in the form of an amendment by Democratic Rep. Curtis McDaniel on a bill that dealt with reckless driving penalties. The amendment didn’t come to an actual vote Tuesday but instead was killed with a 49-37 vote against considering it. Another push to let law enforcement pull over a driver for distracted driving alone died the same way shortly after.
