The Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles on Thursday started adding points to records under the state’s hands-free driving law. The law took effect July 1, 2020, and makes it illegal for drivers to have cellphones in their hands while driving. Since the law went into effect, more than 5,400 citations and 10,000 warnings have been issued. According to the state government’s Indiana Criminal Justice Institute, distracted driving associated with cellphones factored into more than 1,200 crashes in 2019.
