| Description | "An Assembly panel yesterday debated whether to make New Jersey the second state to outlaw using hand-held cell phones while driving. The Senate voted last year to approve such a ban.

Those distractions would include using a cell phone, playing with a radio or CD player, grooming, eating, drinking, reading and tending to unsecured pets."
