SR22 and Cheap Car Insurance for Preferred and High Risk Drivers

Illegal to Text while Driving in PA

In November of 2011, Pennsylvania became the 35th state to make it illegal to text while driving in the state. The new law takes effect in March of 2012. Police officers are now able to pull drivers over who are texting because the new law makes it a primary offense to text and drive. There is a $50.00 fine for this violation but there are no points added to the driving record for the infraction.

Pennsylvania’s new law is a total ban on texting while driving. There are seven states which have a partial ban on texting while driving – Alabama, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas and West Virginia. Eight states do not have any law against texting while driving – Arizona, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Ohio, South Carolina and South Dakota.
