Cell Phone Ban for California Train Operators Passes

Iria · Sep 18, 2008, 04:02 PM

As I wrote earlier, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) met on Thursday to discuss an emergency order which would ban the use of cell phones by train operators. While individual companies may have had such rules in place, there was no law backing up the rules.

In a unanimous vote, the CPUC approved the order.
