While you drive on a highway, your phone shows that a text message has arrived. It is not an emergency. What does Nebraska law allow?
Correct answer: You may not read, type, or send it on a handheld phone while the vehicle is moving.
Why
Texting takes your eyes, hands, and mind off driving at the same time. A driver who reads or sends a text looks away from the road for about 4.6 seconds on average, which at 55 mph is about the length of a football field. The fine is $200 for a first offense, and points are added to your driving record.
