3 months of driving constitutes a little road trip?
I basically go around the world three times a month, so yeah

Do the laws leave exceptions for mobile use of maps while driving?
I think it's up to the discretion of the officer if you get pulled over.
Just buy one of the mounts that attaches to the windshield or dashboard or A/C unit like someone else mentioned... they're only like 10-20 bucks on Amazon.

If your not holding the phone and constantly playing with it, then you will be fine.
As others have said, buy a phone mount, set it before you start driving and you will be fine

that question is so dumb, its as bad as asking if your DUI arrest should depend on the type or brand of alcohol you got drunk on

Only drawback I have found with Waze is that it won't route over 1000 miles so if it's a really long trip you will have to figure out some waypoints before leaving.

Yes, you're right. I'm a fool for worrying about laws across state lines that I'm not familiar with. Also, there's never been over the top troopers, sheriffs, or street cops who flex on non-locals to drive up ticket revenues. No, that never happens.
Is it not possible for you to look at your phone without someone seeing that you're looking at your phone? Do you hold it in front of your face or something?

Just a heads up, Waze won’t route a trip that’s over 1k miles.

Shooters shoot.

You know you can use Waze as GPS right
Waze actually *is* GPS... i mean, it isn’t THE gps, there are other ones.. i mostly use Google Maps.. but— never mind, i also am in disbelief that this is an actual thread.

So you post a thread on the OT asking about cell phone laws, people give you shite, and five days later you get a ticket in WV because a cop hears the navigation from your phone while it’s securely mounted in a holder and he never saw you fiddling with it while driving?
Seems legit.

But your vehicle won't make 1K miles on a tank of gas, so when you pull off to gas up, change the destination on Waze.

Pics of the ticket of it didn’t happen

You cheap-arse, nobody here drives a route over 1000 miles. We all take our private jets.

What I am mad about is that I got a 2nd ticket for Waze on my phone. When I got hit with the lights, I took the exit, which was right there, I to the well lit road side gas station. While he asked for my DL/insurance/registration, my Waze lady piped up with a route update-while my phone was mounted in the holder.
All I can say is that the toughest cell phone law I know of is in Georgia, where you essentially can't put your hands on your phone while driving. However, it is acceptable to use a windshield mount like device. So, what I gather, is that I would fight that second charge of using Waze. Unless WV laws are stiffer than the Georgia one.
My guess is the cop is just pissed at the use of waze, because it typically thwarts his ability to ticker folks because of the app's police notification feature.

I'm actually pissed Waze didn't warn me of him hiding out! Or of the speed limit change. I know the screen shows the changes but I wasn't even looking at the phone screen.
I'm 100% challenging the Waze ticket. But I'm paying the speeding ticket as I was in a work car. Not really trying to make it worse there or have any desire to deal with HR or whatever would come up for that part. Though it's probably inevitable given my challenge of the 2nd ticket.
