New Florida Texting While Driving Law
New Florida Law Makes Texting While Driving a Primary Offense
In the summer of 2019, lawmakers within Florida passed a resolution aimed to reduce the number of accidents, injuries, and fatalities connected to individuals texting while driving. While the law was first put into effect on the 1st of July, 2019, traffic officers and spokespeople for various law enforcement agencies working throughout the state are now letting people know that the preliminary roll-out period for this law has now passed, meaning that the punishments related to texting and driving are about to become more serious.
