By Brooke Thorington Verified| WWNO-FM (New Orleans, LA) Verified Despite being at odds over insurance reform, Gov. Jeff Landry and Insurance Commissioner Tim Temple both support legislation HB 519 that would tighten regulations on cell phone use to reduce the number of traffic fatalities and accidents caused by distracted drivers. Louisiana has already enacted laws that ban texting while driving, handheld cell phone use in school zones and cell phone use for drivers under 16. But broader hands-free legislation has yet to pass.
By Brooke Thorington Verified| KRVS-FM Verified Louisiana’s regular legislative session kicked off Monday. Gov. Jeff Landry’s opening remarks covered several topics, including education, health, tax reform and economic development; but he placed the most emphasis on the state’s insurance crisis. “Year after year we are promised by insurance companies that if we pass this, or we pass that they will lower the rate. It never happens,” said Landry.
