Going after parents who provide alcohol for their kids

With the arrival of proms, graduations and warm weather, community leaders are geared up for another prime party season. And more are taking a get-tough approach with adults who provide alcohol to minors, or who turn their backs to underage drinking, whether it's on their property or not. In Lake County, 24 municipalities — most recently Barrington and Lake Forest — have approved "social-host" laws that penalize any adult who allows a minor to drink or use drugs. Chicago's social-host ordinance calls for jailing any "supervising adult" for up to six months if convicted of allowing teen drinking or possession of alcohol.

Texting drivers who kill people now get 15 years in Utah

The new law, which took effect in May, penalizes a texting driver who causes a fatality as harshly as a drunken driver who kills someone. In effect, a crash caused by such a multitasking motorist is no longer considered an “accident” like one caused by a driver who, say, runs into another car because he nodded off at the wheel. Instead, such a crash would now be considered inherently reckless.

Ban all cell-phone use by drivers, National Safety Council urges

WASHINGTON—A national safety group is advocating a total ban on cell-phone use while driving, saying the practice leads to fatalities. States should ban drivers from using hand-held and hands-free cell phones, and businesses should prohibit employees from using cell phones while driving on the job, the congressionally chartered National Safety Council says, taking those positions for the first time.
