Big Island Cell Phone Ban While Driving Now in Effect
Effective Jan. 1, Big Island motorists are prohibited from using hand-held cell phones while driving. The new law also bans the use of other electronic devices such as laptop computers and video games but permits the use of hands-free devices. Violators can be penalized up to $150, with fines increasing up to $500 if use of the electronic device causes an accident. See Big Island Cell Phone Ban.
