First To Pass a Hands-Free Cellular Law
New York passed it's hands-free driving law back in 2001, since that time the New York Police Department had passed out almost 300,000 tickets within the first 3 years for violating the nations first hands-free cellular driving law. The fine for violating the hands-free driving law is $100 and a traffic infraction on your driving record. Like many of the bills to follow, the New York hands-free law allows the use of a hand-held wireless device in emergency situations only. On the New York State website, the safety warning is clear, "Any task a driver performs while driving is a potential driving distraction." Although the law does permit use of a wireless device as long as the communication is hands-free, New York State lawmakers are clear that it is best to use your cellular phone when your are stopped, and to dial your cell phone only while your are stopped. However unusual, the New York State website also acknowledge the fact that there are numerous benefits to cellular phone use, including reporting crimes and drunk or reckless drivers and to report car trouble.
