I'm trying to figure out if the Hebrew is a translation of the English or the English is a translation of the Hebrew. They both look like they were translated by Google translate, although I think the Hebrew is worse.
Me thinks there ain't much truth here.

You cant touch your cellphone once you enter your car? Thatll really work

I feel like this was a WhatsApp message in English that someone just C/P to word and then translated to Hebrew

[YidelS]

The way this paper is written makes me feel that it's fake.

Yup, sounds like a poorly constructed meme

I don't know whether it's real that paper or not, but the message that paper is conveying is definitely real and is really sad how so much accidents can happen from a single text or answering a call.
 I would understand that note as a friendly reminder that a "second" of distraction can be a "life long lost".

Hard to believe they'll impose the rule by spreading the news through a paper

But like they say you never know in Israel

This rumor is going around all over but no one can confirm it.

[emjee]

Driver's License Update
Foreigners who are in Israel for less than one year are permitted to drive with a foreign driver's license. Once a foreigner has lived in Israel for more than one year, he is required to hold an Israeli license when driving.
There is a common misconception that when non-Israelis leave Israel, this 12 month "grace period" restarts. In actuality, the law states that foreign citizens who live in Israel for a year or more are required to hold an Israeli driver's license, unless they have left the country for a three-month break or longer.
It is important to note that rental companies frequently rent cars to those without an Israeli license. However, in the event of an accident, insurances will often refuse to cover if the driver did not have an Israeli license and is obligated to by law.
It is simplest to convert your driver's license if it is done during your first year in Israel. Contact Chaim V'Chessed to learn more about converting your foreign driver's license to an Israeli driver's license.

If you convert an American license to an Israeli license, will that cancel your American license or will you end up having two valid licenses?

Do moving violations in Israel issued to an American license in any way affect the American license?

no and no way, sometimes violations don’t even affect it from another state
