New Law: Hands-Free Minnesota

Starting August 1st, 2019 the State of Minnesota will be Hands-free

What does that mean? Simply put, you may not hold your phone in your hand.

Also, a driver may not use their phone at any time for video calling, video live-streaming, Snapchat, gaming, looking at video or photos stored on the phone, using non-navigation apps, reading texts and scrolling or typing on the phone.

All the regulations are on the Minnesota State - Office of Traffic Safety.

Thanks to our longtime member and supporter Loggy Dome KAXE/KBXE is able to keep you safer and give you Popsockets and carmounts to help you be handsfree. 

This could be your thank you gift when you pledge $10/month or more at kaxe.org. 

It's the gift that keeps on giving - cool for you and making roads safer in Minnesota, all while supporting independent community radio in northern MN.  Grab your popsocket while they last by calling 800-662-5799.  Your support makes a difference to us, you are truly a very important person!
