to adopt a resolution urging state legislators to take action to promote traffic safety by prohibiting the use of cell phones while crossing streets. with a unanimous vote of 5 to 0 the san mateo county board of supervisors adopted a resolution asking sacramento to create and pass a law banning distracted walking in a crosswalk but what do people think about the resolution i think it's, they should have something like that yes i think they need it (but why) because you see a lot of kids they be walking across in the sidewalk not paying attention and they don't realize there are in a crosswalk and they don't have the right away sometimes they just walk right into traffic. i think that's a good law, i think that's good, (but isn't it just one more law to add to the books) well it is, but it's very dangerous for people walking you know and texting and either driving and texting i think that were always on our phones and (put em down) yea we can all walk across the street safely (so you need a law) we don't need a law can't we all just be good (apparently we can't a lot are behaving badly) so yea then i
4:51 am
guess we need a law (what do you think?) i think we need a law, that's why a lot of accidents and things happen is because people are behaving badly so yea there would be a law in effect (what do you think?) i think that people are on their phones way to much, i think a lot of accidents can happen people can run into each other cars can hit people i think it's probably a good idea. so now that it's a resolution what's the next step san mateo county supervisor david canepa hopefully, the assembly will take this on which i'm confident they will, the senate and then the governor will sign it by this time in june it will be a state law so san mateo county is in the history books for introducing a possible new law . we at least time you can't blame me so let it be known that it was stanley roberts and if i had the ability to call it the stanley roberts resolution which it should be we would do that and stanley again you've come through you actually created a law why do i have a sneaky feeling this is going to come back and haunt mein redwood city stanley roberts kron 4 news
