Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey Supports HandsFreeNC (2:00)
Texting and e-mailing behind the wheel is already prohibited in North Carolina - a hands-free driving law simply means you can’t hold the device in your hand while driving.
29 other states and the District of Columbia already have a hands-free law on the books, and North Carolinians overwhelmingly support making it the law here.
Meredith College Polling from January 2024: 91% percent of respondents want the General Assembly to pass a bill that prohibits drivers from holding a mobile device while driving.
“A hands-free law may have more bipartisan support than any other single piece of legislation in recent history,” said David McLennan, Director of the Meredith College Poll. “We have polled on this for several years now and the support has only grown for passage of such legislation. There is such strong awareness that phones and safe driving do not go together.”
