Got an email from my mom just now:

Hi Leng,

Please dont forget, using cell phone while driving is prohibited by law effective today.

Take care.

mom

I know she's serious, and I refrain from talking on the phone when she's in the car with me cuz I know it freaks her out. It just made me laugh that she emailed me at work to tell me that. haha!

Actually, Iya told me that it's not effective until July 1, 2008.

But my mom just told me that her co-worker's boyfriend got pulled over today. Hmmm...
