    Good! thats a good way to teach them a lesson. Too bad there are still too many that havent been caught yet.

    Is there a rule prohibiting Biker's at a stop light from pulling out their cell phones even to check for missed calls?

    Charging a higher premium I understand, though I don't think it should carry any more penalty than a speeding ticket unless it results in an accident. I disagree with outright refusing to cover them. When operating the radio is deemed to be unsafe will insurance companies react the same way?

    From the way I understand it many people have been charged even checking their phones at red lights. I believe you need to be out of flow of traffic and in park. If I'm wrong someone please correct me.

    This doesn't go far enough. I think they should refuse insurance to anyone who gets convicted of any ticket!! Think of the children.

    Ottawa police are using an unconventional method to crack down on drivers using handheld devices behind the wheel.

    Officers have been patrolling intersections dressed as panhandlers to catch unsuspecting drivers as they break the law by using their phones.

    Wow that's sneaky. But I think this lady has a good defense.
    Others though were angered by the tactic. Allison Boyles said she was frightened when someone who she thought was a stranger approached her vehicle. "In that moment, I reached for my phone hoping that sends a message to somebody approaching my vehicle," she said.

    I wonder if anyone's thrown them change and, if so, what do they do with it? I bet they use it to buy drugs.

    How 'bout this, A Texting Driving Test? Add this to the MTO test.
    This should heighten its awareness and show how dangerous it is.

    Not bad. It even hints at the express exception of emergency situations. + 1 lady.
    This post does not provide any legal advice and readers should consult with their own lawyer for legal advice.

    The police set up a road block for me one time. When I got to the road block (didn't know it was for me), the sargent asked me why I was driving so fast? Just as I'm about to reply this brown van screeches to a halt right behind me and a guy jumps out of the drivers door with his hand on his gun. I replied "Because I thought someone with a gun was chasing me, AND LOOK, I WAS RIGHT!" lol.

    They let me off with "passing on a hill" which was a totally bogus charge, but I happily paid it
