Default several states outlaw using cb radio while walking

several states have now outlawed using ham radio while walking. this
is part of their ban on ALL electronic devices while walking as a
result of the lady who fell into a fountain while walking in a mall.
however, instead of outlawing only texting while walking, the new
laws
state using ANY electronic device while walking is against the law
and
violators will get fined over two hundred dollars for doing such. And
unlike the driving laws, there are NO exceptions for ham radio or cbl
radio *in these states laws against using ANY and ALL electronic
devices while walking.

I'd like to see the text of such legal codes.
What states and where did you get this story?
