This law against cell phone usage while driving was overturned.
Not unlike Massachusetts; only this year was hand held cell phone use banned. But they still allow Bluetooth and hands-free. Like the quiet punk in the corner with a cell phone, thinking it's not affecting anyone.

Hope y'all had a Happy Halloween.
You're persistent, I'll give you that.
Tiresome, but persistent.
There's always hands - free๐
shareHands-free or not, it's an unnecessary distraction.
Just like those people on their cell phones at the back of the line or the back of the store... they're the worst because they think it affects no one. The people in front holding everyone up know they're pushing it and stop after a few seconds. They're more likely to get reprimanded and hopefully learn from it.
But the ones in the back think they're doing everybody a favor. Just like the punk on the hands-free thinking about everything but driving... on the phone for the whole ride every time.
They are the Busy-Busies who get in the habit of actually keeping people on the phone with small talk until they reach their destination and say, "Okay, I just got here so I have to go now." They're clueless.
Hopefully Chapel Hill can do better than that. It would be nice if it were safer there, and if it were safer to drive to a Celtics game.
