Police Focusing on Drivers Violating Hands Free Cell Phone Law and Texting Today and Tomorrow

Posted By Christine McGuire || 22-Nov-2010

California Vehicle Code Section 23123 provides that a person shall not drive a motor vehicle while using a wireless telephone unless that telephone is specifically designed and configured to allow  hands-free listening and talking and is used in that manner while driving.  A violation of CVC 23123 is an infraction, a charge less serious than a misdemeanor. It is punishable by a base fine of $20 for a first offense however the total fine is $145. Today and tomorrow from Santa Cruz County to Ventura County along the central coast law enforcement will focus on drivers violating the hands-free cell phone law and texting. According to law enforcement, a significant number of drivers have been involved in traffic collisions where inattention due to cell phone use played a role.  If you arrested or charged with a crime, contact Christine McGuire, the Santa Cruz Criminal Defense Attorney; Santa Cruz DUI Defense Attorney; Santa Clara DUI Defense Attorney/Lawyer.
