Similar to New York State, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is getting tougher on cell phone use while driving.
June 5, 2024, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro signed into law a bill named “Paul Miller’s Law.” This new law goes into effect on June 5, 2025, exactly one year later, which makes it illegal to use a handheld cell phone while driving.
According to the Governor’s press release, “Paul Miller’s Law” was named for Paul Miller, Jr., who was tragically killed in a crash with a tractor-trailer in 2010 in Monroe County, as a result of a distracted driver who reached for their phone while driving.
