Santa Monica Police Intensify Enforcement of Californias Hands-Free Driving Law
In March, Santa Monica police are stepping up efforts to enforce Californias hands-free driving law. Officers will conduct special operations to catch drivers using cell phones or other devices behind the wheel. The state law prohibits using a handheld phone for calls, texts, apps, or any other purpose while driving. First offenses result in a fine, and a second one within three years adds a point to your driving record. Authorities emphasize that phone distractions increase crash risks, urging drivers to pull over for calls or navigation, silence phones, or keep them out of reach before driving. This enforcement push is supported by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, funded by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Drivers in Santa Monica should anticipate more tickets this month, so plan to stay hands-free and safe.
