DES MOINES, Iowa —

Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds has signed a long-awaited hands-free driving bill into law.

The law bans cellphones and other devices from being used while driving unless they are in hands-free mode.

    Didn’t the rest of the world do this like 10 years ago?

      Yeah… and, in my experience, these laws have zero impact on people’s driving habits. Every day I see MANY people on my commute with their phones in their hands, and usually it’s easy to tell who is using their phone because their driving is erratic. However, no one ever gets pulled over for it.
