Florida has had an ongoing problem with it's texting while driving laws: namely, that they don't do much. In 2013, our state passed its very first version of a texting while driving ban. But the law lacks any teeth. it makes texting while driving a secondary offense, which means that a police officer can't pull someone over solely for texting while driving. They have to commit some other offense first, and then the police officer can tack on a texting while driving charge on top of the original offense.
