Arkansas Driving and Cell Phone Laws

Arkansas has a cell-phone law called HB 1042. HB 1042 was signed into law by the Governor of Arkansas in February of 2003. The law prohibits school bus drivers from using a cell phone unless the bus is safely off the road with the parking brake engaged.

The law also extends to other vehicles that are privately owned and operated for compensation for the benefit of the district and are used to transport children to or from school or a school sponsored activity. This law does not provide exceptions for hands-free devices.
