      MISSOURI'S 3% SCHOOL STOP SIGNS SAY IT ALL! WITH FEW DRIVERS OR CYCLISTS OBEYING TRAFFIC LAWS - IT MIGHT BE A GOOD TIME FOR THE LOCAL MEDIA TO INTRODUCE 'CIVIC DUTY AND 100 % SCHOOL STOP SIGNS. FROM JEFFERSON CITY TO THE MEAN STREETS OF MISSOURI, AMERICANS ARE LAX ABOUT TRAFFIC LAWS. THIS KEEPS AMERICA'S ENEMIES HAPPY AND WITH 18,700 TRAFFIC FATALIES IN 2024, IT MIGHT BE TIME TO GROW UP.

      They wrote that the law does not apply to law enforcement officers: revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=304.822

    I witnessed people texting on the highway doing about 70 mph. Many young people. Phone on top of the steering wheel.

      in my experience, kids with a phone are less dangerous than old people behind the wheel. Both are quite dangerous though

    I believe most states have this…but in my state it’s not enforced and if caught it’s a 132.00 fine..I’ve seen cops and highway patrol talking on the phone..

      Guess they will have to draw out the map after looking it up. That's what I do anyway, because my gps goes out at times;at the wrong time. :)

      I use my phone for GPS. It isn't in my hand while I drive. Why would it?

      @bdub-j1f you dont need your phone in hand to read a text or watch UA-cam either but those are mentioned in the law so it's not just if it's in your hand or in a holder

      @@DavidBrown-qh5cr you asked "what about GPS". the law clearly says that it is allowed in the exceptions: "The use of an electronic communication device to access or view a map for navigational purposes"
      revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=304.822
      so to answer your original question "What about my GPS" its clear that it is allowed.
      To answer your new question where you don't need your phone in hand to read a text or watch youtube, its clearly outlined in the law, especially the watching of a video bit. Point 2 talks about reading, sending and writing texts. You are allowed to utilize voice operating or hands free features that cover these functions and converts the message to written form as long as your attention is not diverted.
      I have linked the law itself so you can give it a read.
