Introduced

SB 567 - Under current law, drivers who are 21 years of age or younger are prohibited from text messaging while operating a motor vehicle. Under this act, the text messaging ban is applied universally so that all drivers, regardless of age, are prohibited from text messaging while operating a motor vehicle. The act also prohibits anyone from being stopped solely to determine compliance with the text messaging ban (Section 304.820).

This act is identical to HB 317 (2011).
