Newton cell phone incentive could catch on

A new incentive plan in Newton could catch on. A lawyer and his wife plan to reward Newton High School students who pledge not to drive while distracted by cell phones. Corey Walker is an injury attorney who came up with a plan to offer $25 iTunes gift cards and $100 college scholarships to Newton High School students who sign a pledge to lay off cell phones while driving until they turn 18 and graduate. A law passed last year banned people younger than 18 from using their cell phones while driving. Walker wants to make sure they stick to it.
