Senator Carl Kruger proposed a bill to ban the use of cellphones, mp3s players, and the use of other electronic devices in the streets of New York City. Since most New York City rely in walking and the use of public transportation, the government thinks it’s safer for pedestrians not to use any electronic devices while walking in city streets.

With over 20 million people in the city I wonder how the NYPD will enforce this. This is just another pointless bill that no one will pay attention to if passed by the NY state government.

I think you got your facts a bit mixed up
Its actually banning them while crossing streets amid traffic only..
Cause people dont look around while on phone
Its pretty much impossible to ban cell phones ……when you are outside..because you are technically on some street..
