Tie votes prompt lawmaker to switch his position on texting ban Friday

BISMARCK — Debate over a proposed North Dakota ban on texting while driving created a deadlock Friday among state lawmakers. Twice, the House Transportation Committee came back with a 7-7 vote. On the third vote, lawmakers broke the impasse with an 8-6 recommendation to not pass the bill. Rep. Mark Owens, R-Grand Forks, switched his position to move the bill out of committee with a recommendation, but said he would support the texting ban during the floor vote.

Lawmaker: N.D. needs texting law

House Bill 1195 would ban drivers from using wireless communication devices to compose, read or send electronic messages. This includes checking e-mail, texting, instant messaging and using the Internet. The bill has exceptions for talking on the phone or operating a global positioning system device. The proposed law would not apply in emergency situations.
