Reply to comment by Blarco in Highway signs - our senators are talking to the feds by beaglemama

Yes, but my point was that if billboards are legal in NJ, these DOT signs should be too. They're really not difficult to read and process quickly.

Ah, fair point. I think it's all pointless. People really shouldn't need to be told to not use their phone while driving, but here we are.

My guess is that the Feds fear that too many people will be taking photos of them while driving.

Seemed to be the case for a while there. I saw a ton of these posted from cellphone cameras for a few weeks there.

If this is one of the reasons, the Feds should at least say so. Otherwise, it just seems childish to tell states to cut it out for no reason.
