NCSL's Driver Distractions Database
 Online Extra
May 2008
NCSL has developed a database for state legislation concerning driver distractions and technology in motor vehicles. The database is intended to capture state legislative efforts to address driver distraction issues including proposed restrictions on wireless or cellular telephones. The database includes brief summaries of the legislation, bill status information, the bill sponsor, and links to the legislation.
Users can search the database by year, state, bill status, and legislation scope. As with all legislation, the database is a work in progress. Generally, legislation information is updated on a weekly basis.
