RIO DE JANEIRO  Public transit vans like the one in which 
an American student was gang raped last month were banned Thursday from 
Rio de Janeiro's touristy South Zone neighborhoods.The measure was floated 
late last year as a way to help ease the city's chronic 
traffic jams but gained urgency as a safety measure in the wake 
of the March 30 attack on the American woman and her French 
companion, who were attacked by a van driver and two other young 
men who brutalized them for about six hours inside the vehicle.Under a 
decree published Thursday in the local government's Official Journal, the 
vans will be prohibited from operating in high-rent neighborhoods including 
Ipanema and Leblon beaches, as well as Copacabana, where the two foreigners 
boarded the van to travel to a nightlife hotspot in downtown. Exceptions 
will be made for vans serving two "favela" hillside slums sandwiched between 
high-rent South Zone neighborhoods, according to the decree, which takes 
effect on Monday.Without the vans and with a key metro station closed 
pending the extension of the subway, residents and workers in the South 
Zone will need to rely on buses, taxis and private vehicles to 
get around.The 12-seat vans are seen as a quicker alternative to buses 
and largely travel the same routes. They will continue to ply the 
poor, sprawling suburbs that ring this city of 6 million.Thursday's decree 
was the second safety regulation for public vans put in place since

day, but it wasnt available to the Verizon person we contacted at 
2 oclock in the morning.That has now changed, he said. We call 
them up and say we have an emergency and we get the 
information immediately.But that isnt always the case for local law enforcement 
in many states. Only nine have adopted Kelseys Law, requiring cellphone 
companies to release pertinent information to police in an emergency, like 
an abducted teenager or an elderly person who wanders off and cant 
be found. Since Kansas adopted the law in 2009, Nebraska, Minnesota, New 
Hampshire, North Dakota, Missouri, Hawaii, Tennessee and Utah have followed 
suit.Missey Smith and her husband, Greg, a Kansas state senator, are the 
law's toughest proponents, traveling the country to lobby the legislation 
by speaking before lawmakers in various states. The couple visited Rhode 
Island last week and Nevada on Monday.The latest draft of Kelseys law, 
obtained by FoxNews.com, also protects cellphone providers from lawsuits, 
stating, No cause of action shall lie in any court against any 
provider of a commercial mobile service or an IP-enabled voice service, 
its officers, employees or agents for providing call location information 
in an emergency situation. The information is readily available to cellphone 
providers within 15 to 20 minutes and we could no
