Most states allow for emergency vehicle and bus drivers to operate while using cell phones

  • (d) This section does not apply to an emergency services professional using a wireless telephone while operating an authorized emergency vehicle, as defined in Section 165, in the course and scope of his or her duties.
  • (e) This section does not apply to a person driving a schoolbus or transit vehicle that is subject to Section 23125.
  • (f) This section does not apply to a person while driving a motor vehicle on private property.

And weren't there just a few bad school bus accidents in NJ last year that killed kids because the driver was on the phone? That doesn't make sense. Same thing with cops, what do they need to drive and be on cell phones? At least every cop car I've ever seen had had dispatch radios, laptops and all sorts of communication devices in the cars. Plenty of cops in my family, no offense to police :)
