Brian LITCHFIELD, assistant director at Chapel Hill Transit has assured me that there is a policy in place on all Chapel Hill Transit buses - prohibiting the use of any cellphone - but not necessarily all other electronic devices - by drivers when the buses are in motion. I asked yesterday after reading the news from California implementing such a policy on train operators, at least some of them and at least temporarily. The Chapel Hill Tranist policy:
"CHT drivers are not permitted to use cell phones while the bus, car, or van is in service
or in motion. Use of cell phones distracts your attention from driving safely. The use of a
cell phone with an earpiece is also prohibited. Please do not wear your earpiece while in the
driver’s seat." This the text of the California measure.
