OKLAHOMA CITY — A House committee approved legislation Tuesday to ban texting while driving.
House Bill 1503 — sponsored by Rep. Curtis McDaniel, D-Smithville — would allow a fine of up to $500 for people caught using a cell phone to write, send or read a text message, instant message or email while driving.
