Claimed he didn't see it!
The speed limit around school zones is 20 mph but in Indpls,In and in Bowling Green, Oh in the college area's the posted speed limit is 10 mph. BG outlawed texting while driving or walking-if you are involved in an accident while texting you are automatically at fault. I recently changed car ins. and they asked me if I text-usually they ask if you smoke. This may be a sign that car ins. may go up if you have a cell with text capabilities.
