Utah Distracted Driver Bill Now In Force
See what functions of handheld devices have been prohibited by the Utah Legislature while operating motor vehicles.
The Utah Legislature recently passed a bill that prohibits several functions of handheld devices while operating motor vehicles. The prohibited functions include writing, sending, or reading a written communication such as a text message, instant message, email, dialing a phone number, accessing the internet, watching videos, or entering in data into the device while driving. Penalties and convictions may be incurred for any violation of these acts.
Functions that are not prohibited include talking on the handheld device, viewing navigation apps, or any use for an emergency, such as reporting hazards or criminal activity. Hands-free technology is acceptable and voice-operated commands are permitted for any of the otherwise prohibited functions.
