The sentence was 4.5 years in jail for two offenses, but he only actually has to serve one year in jail

Is that penalty enough to get people's attention? I'll admit I get distracted when driving but I don't text and drive, I barely text at all. But that doesn't mean I'm not guilty of other distractions.

It's not enough of a sentence. But being the first case, it has gotten national attention.
