New driving laws go into effect Tuesday


Recommended Posts

Texas drivers are going to have to buckle up and pipe down under new driving laws that go into effect Tuesday.

For the first time, everyone in a vehicle will need to wear a seat belt — not just those in the front seat or younger than 15.

Drivers also must secure children younger than 8 in car safety seats, not just those 4 and younger.

And, talking on a cell phone while driving in a school zone will no longer be allowed (There must be signs indicating no cell phone in school zone).

The restrictions are greater for younger drivers — they can't talk on cell phones or text message at all while driving.
