12. In California, the laws related to cell phone use while driving are as follows:
1. Handheld Cell Phone Ban: It is illegal to use a handheld cell phone while operating a
motor vehicle. This means you cannot hold your phone in your hand for any reason,
including making calls, texting, or using any other app.
2. Hands-Free Requirement: If you wish to use your cell phone while driving, you must
use a hands-free device, such as a Bluetooth headset or speakerphone. Drivers over 18
years of age are allowed to use hands-free devices.
3. Cell Phone Use for Drivers Under 18: Drivers under the age of 18 are prohibited from
using cell phones for any reason while driving, even if they are using hands-free devices.
4. Texting Ban: All drivers, regardless of age, are prohibited from writing, sending, or
reading text messages while driving.
5. GPS and Maps: While using a GPS navigation system or a mapping app on your
phone is generally allowed, it must be set up before you start driving. Adjusting GPS or
mapping apps while driving is considered distracted driving and is illegal.
What is your opinion of cell phone driving laws? Are they necessary? Are they
enforceable? Do they restrict your personal freedom? Respond to the statements below,
explaining why you agree or disagree.
Statement 1:
Banning the use of handheld cell phones while driving is a minor inconvenience
compared to the benefit to public safety.
Statement 2:
Talking on a cell phone is no more dangerous than putting on makeup, eating, tuning the
radio, or looking at a map while driving. People need to use common sense; laws cannot
make that happen.

8. You are an assistant to Margaret O’Connor, the manager of telecommunications in a
financial firm. At this firm, employees have been exceeding their mobile data plan
quotas, leading to increased costs for the company. Your supervisor says, “From
reviewing the mobile usage records, it has come to our attention that several employees
are consistently exceeding their mobile data plan quotas for personal use. This is
impacting our overall expenses, and it’s important to note that our ability to provide
raises depends on effective cost management. I would appreciate it if you could help
draft a memo, which I will sign, addressed to all staff members. The memo should serve
as a reminder of our company policy regarding mobile data usage, as outlined in the
company manual. Please ensure the message communicates that unauthorized excess
usage will not go unnoticed, and appropriate actions will be taken if violations persist.
Actually I know who they are, but I am giving everybody a warning first. Make it sound
courteous and tactful. We do not want to upset people.”
Your supervisor has asked you to prepare a memo for her signature in which you review
the company’s policy on personal use of mobile data plans (see above). Make an outline
of the points you wish to cover; then draft the memo on the form that follows.
