Interesting! Though on closer inspection that sign appears to be interstate 494, which is based out of Minnesota. Wikipedia says their hands-free traffic law took effect on August 1st 2019. That time of year, quality of photo, and car models seem to line up with that image.
It’s referring to phone operation. Drivers are mandated to use a hands-free system like a headset or car speaker.
This is an old picture, right?
That’s what I was wondering, and hoping. Otherwise what state (or province?) isn’t already enforcing distracted driving rules?
I-464 is entirely in Virginia (I don’t know what the of shields mean to look them up.
Virginia brought in hands free 1 Jan 2021, so this photo could be 31 Dec 2020, but I don’t think Virginia is warm enough to dress like that in Jan.
Edit: there are a fucking lot of states without hands free laws - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restrictions_on_cell_phone_use_while_driving_in_the_United_States

That says 494, not 464.
Edit: I see a 494 near a 62 in Minnesota. Don’t see a 24 there though.
Seems I can’t keep my 69 straight
Seriously, Montana? Texting while driving is A-OK?
What are they going to hit?
100 miles of grass in any direction?
