Ask A Trooper
Question: Is it legal to wear earplugs or headphones while driving a vehicle in Minnesota? Answer: State statute says that no person, while operating a motor vehicle, shall wear headphones or earphones that are used in both ears simultaneously for purposes of receiving or listening to broadcasts or reproductions from radios or other sound-producing or transmitting devices. A hands-free device, like a Bluetooth earpiece, is legal because it is only worn in one ear.
