New Hampshire is now the 15th state to bar drivers from using hand-held cellphones while driving.
The new “hands-free” law, in effect as of July 1, applies to all hand-held devices, including GPS units, tablets and laptops.
Violators face a $100 fine for the first offense, $250 for a second offense and $500 for subsequent offenses within a 24-month period.
Bluetooth or other hands-free electronic devices will be allowed.
Police say in the last four years distraction was the cause of 124 crashes on New Hampshire roads.
