Distracted Driving FAQ's
Q: Is it legal to drive while using a cell phone?
A: It depends on where you live, but more and more, the answer is no. No state has banned cell phone use entirely, but a handful of states have banned use of hand-held phones. Indiana, for example, bans use of any telecommunications device for a driver under the age of 18 – obviously due to his or her inexperience and statistically high percentage of probability of involvement in a car accident during those early years of driving. Far more states have outlawed texting while driving, and many others are considering it. Congress is considering a law that would require states to pass a texting ban before they are eligible for federal highway funding. And the Secretary of Transportation has finally made distracted driving a central safety issue.
