Leyes de Montaje en el Parabrisas de Maine (Guía 2026)

Preguntas frecuentes

¿Puedo poner el GPS o el teléfono en el parabrisas en Maine?

Sí. Maine no impone una prohibición general de dispositivos montados en el parabrisas. Bajo la 29-A MRSA 2082, cualquier dispositivo montado en el parabrisas es legal siempre que no obstruya la vista despejada del conductor sobre la carretera y las condiciones del tránsito. Las ubicaciones más seguras son el tablero o la parte inferior del parabrisas.

¿Cuál es la regla del toque único para dispositivos montados en Maine?

Bajo la 29-A MRSA 2121, los conductores de 18 años o más pueden usar un dedo para hacer un solo deslizamiento, toque o pulsación en un dispositivo montado que esté en modo manos libres. El dispositivo debe estar fijado al vehículo en una posición que no bloquee la vista del conductor. No se permiten interacciones de varios pasos, como escribir o desplazarse, mientras se conduce.

¿Cuál es la multa por usar un teléfono con la mano mientras se conduce en Maine?

Una primera infracción bajo la ley de manos libres de Maine (29-A MRSA 2121) conlleva una multa de $50. Una segunda infracción o posteriores conlleva una multa de $250. Enviar mensajes de texto mientras se conduce, bajo la 29-A MRSA 2119, tiene multas más severas que comienzan en $250 por una primera infracción, con suspensiones de licencia por infracciones repetidas dentro de tres años.

¿Son legales las cámaras de tablero (dashcams) en los parabrisas en Maine?

Sí. Maine no tiene un estatuto específico sobre cámaras de tablero. Una cámara de tablero se trata como cualquier otro dispositivo montado bajo la 29-A MRSA 2082 y está permitida siempre que no obstruya la vista despejada del conductor. La colocación más común y legalmente segura es detrás del espejo retrovisor.

¿Pueden los conductores adolescentes usar dispositivos de manos libres en Maine?

No. A los titulares de un permiso de aprendizaje se les prohíbe todo uso de dispositivos móviles bajo la 29-A MRSA 1304, incluido el modo manos libres. Los conductores menores de 18 años con licencias intermedias enfrentan la misma restricción bajo la 29-A MRSA 1311. Solo los conductores de 18 años o más sin restricciones de permiso o licencia intermedia pueden usar dispositivos en modo manos libres.

Actualizaciones

Removed an invented windshield-obstruction fine for snow and ice (there is no such clause in 29-A MRSA 2082) and cited the real, differently-scoped snow/ice statute instead, and corrected a misattributed bill number for the 2023 fine-increase proposal (LD 145, not LD 224).
