A bill banning texting while driving in Wisconsin will likely become a law soon. The bill was passed in the Assembly in January, and an amended version was passed in the Senate April 15. 

The bill will likely be signed by Governor Jim Doyle in the next week. The law would impose a fine of $20 to $400 for any driver caught texting while driving. The ban is meant to crack down on distracted driving caused by cell phone use.

A Wisconsin man was killed in a car accident Monday. According to police reports, the accident occurred on State Highway 18 near Fennimore. 

The man was apparently walking east on the highway when he was hit by a vehicle. When medical officials arrived, the man was pronounced dead, while the driver was not injured. 

One man died, and another child suffered serious injuries as a result of a car accident earlier this week. According to police reports, the accident occurred in Cuba City. 

The man was apparently driving his car down Highway 80 when his car crossed the center line and hit another vehicle head on. The accident caused the driver to be ejected from the car, while the child remained fastened in the vehicle. When medical officials arrived, both the father and son were taken to a nearby hospital, where the father later died. 

A dog apparently caused a Wisconsin fender bender earlier this week. According to police reports, the accident occurred near Middleton. 

The dog was apparently left alone in the car, and it somehow shifted the car's gear into neutral. The shift caused the car to roll out of its parking lot and hit a pickup truck on the other side of the parking lot. No one, however, was injured in the accident.
