This is not only somewhat odd news but local news, being that Fort Lee, NJ is only minutes away from our town. Foort Lee decided to ban texting and walking for safety precautions, which is a completely understandable reason. The more outrageous part is that the pedestrians caught in the act will owe an $85 fine to the town. Fort Lee seems like it may make a pretty penny off of people's technology addictions.
