If you’re driving, this is something that you will want to know A new law went into effect in Florida that you need to be aware of. Florida is now a hands free state for both construction and school zones. That means that you can be pulled over if you even have your phone in your hand in these zones, you do not need to be doing anything on it. For now you will receive a warning, starting on January 1, 2020 it will be a $60 fine and 3 points on your license. There is a lot of construction right now in the Orlando area, so I thought you’d want to know.
