Your phone is in a dashboard mount while you drive on a public road in South Carolina. Which use of the phone is legal?
Correct answer: Talking on a call through a wireless earpiece, with the phone left in the mount
Why
The Act took effect on September 1, 2025, and it applies on every public road in the state. Set your music, navigation and calls before you move, and when you must type or read, park first in a safe and legal place. A call, even a hands-free call, still takes part of your mind off the road, so keep calls short and simple.
