Interview with Gina Harris

Gina Harris knows the power of talking
She has been talking to anyone who will listen about cell phone safety.
Harris said that she realizes that people would still use their phones while driving just like everyone speeds although it is against the law. She just wants people stop and analyze their actions.
“Hopefully this law will make people think about what they are doing, most people are good natured and do not intend to break the law,” She said.
Besides working with lawmakers she is also addressing the problem by talking with young people about this issue.
“The younger you start with children the easier it is for them to understand that this is a serious matter,” Harris said.
She has also been getting help from her extended family.
My cousin’s daughter has started a petition at Putnam High School to not use cell phones while driving.”
Harris says that Oklahoma is ready for this type of law.
“It is amazing how many people I talk to and I have only received one negative response, people want a change.”
