HB1107

This bill prohibits drivers from using hand-held mobile electronic devices—such as cell phones, tablets, and portable gaming devices—while operating a vehicle on South Dakota roads, including when stopped at traffic lights or in traffic. The law applies even when a vehicle is temporarily stationary, but excludes devices like CB radios and commercial two-way radios, as well as phones that are lawfully parked. Violators will face penalties as specified elsewhere in the bill.
