==== Text stops ==== In 2013, the state of New York launched "It Can Wait", a program for encouraging drivers to pause at rest stops and parking areas along state roads to [[Texting|text]] (thereby avoiding [[texting while driving]]), by designating all such areas "text stops". The practice involves placing road signs which indicate the nearest "texting zone" at which to legally stop and use mobile devices such as [[smartphone]]s.<ref>{{cite web|url = http://www.governor.ny.gov/press/09232013-governor-unveils-texting-zones|title = Governor Cuomo Unveils 'Texting Zones' Along NYS Thruway and Highways for Drivers to Pull Over and Use Their Cell Phones|website= Office of the Governor of New York|author = Press release|date = September 23, 2013}}</ref>
