Carp,
I guess you can call me selfish,I don't think I am a selfish person.Your missing my point about the cell phone in a car.Tell me how many drownings happend this year on utah waters...I would say under 10??? that was reported.Now you have over a million citizens in Utah what does that make the percentage???..0.02% of the population die from drowning per year??What about laws that we all have to wear parachutes on commerical airlines becasue of the chance of crashing.I don't think there are the numbers of drownings that would get the the changed.Its VERY when someone dies from drowning,but the goverment should not impose on your freedom of choice wether to wear a PFD or not.
I guess we can agree to disagree on this subject.I personally think there needs to be more enforcement of the current laws that are in place.We will never stop having drownings when you have people piling into and not having the enough PFD's for everyone in cannos,small boats..ect.. on big waters or even smaller waters.That owner of the boat should be fined for not having enough PFD's on his craft like the law states.Its though he will have to live with that mistake for the rest of his life.
