9. As of 07/01/07 cell phone use must be "hands free" while driving.
Ticket is $285. They will be looking for this like crazy - easy money for police department.



According to the California DMV (Section 23123: Hand-Held Wireless Telephone: Prohibited Use) the hands free cell phone use does not become operative until July 1, 2008. The fine is also a base of $20 for the first offense and $50 for each subsequent offense.

I don't know about the others on this list, but do you have a source for this info?
