Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz signed a bill that states come August, drivers can send messages or place calls while driving only if their device is in hands-free or voice-activated mode.

Punching in a phone number isn't allowed, scrolling through a list of contacts or messages is not allowed, and after August 1 police can stop anyone they see holding a phone while driving.

The Department of Public Safety and law enforcement are launching a public education campaign to make sure Minnesotans have heard about the new law before it goes into effect in August.
