Bill > SF2248

This bill amends existing laws related to the use of electronic communication devices while driving. The key provisions are: 1. It removes the restriction on using a hand-held mobile device to write, send, or view electronic messages while driving, as long as the device is used in a voice-activated or hands-free mode. 2. It allows the use of electronic communication devices for certain purposes, such as reporting emergencies, receiving safety alerts, and using two-way radios. 3. It imposes a $30 scheduled fine for using an electronic communication device while driving, but requires law enforcement to issue a warning instead of a citation for the first violation. 4. It removes the provision that using an electronic communication device while driving is considered a moving violation for certain driver's license-related offenses. Overall, the bill aims to update the laws around the use of electronic devices while driving to reflect changes in technology, while still maintaining some restrictions to promote driver safety.
