Talking on Cellphone new fine
Hey All,
I have a question. I was driving recently and was caught and charged under the distracted driving law as someone called me. It mentions I have 15 days to pay but I want to consider my options. I also read in the newspaper that the set fine of $155 will be going up March 18th.
Would this apply to me if I pay after March 18 or only to those caught after this date? Thanks a lot everyone for your reply.
Re: Talking on Cellphone new fine
The fine will remain the same as shown on your ticket. The new fine will only apply to people charged on that date forward.

Another question-hypothetically speaking, if they impose demerit points for cellphone offences in the future but before I have paid my fine-would that apply to me or not?

They will show up.
The set fine with surcharges for anyone charged before March 18 is $155. If a driver challenges the ticket in court, a judge has the discretion to adjust the fine anywhere in the range of $60 to $500.

I have a lot of issues with the idea that speed measuring devices like radar and lidar guns are using computer generated simulations to test themselves that they are working properly. The manufacturer is making a claim that a device can test itself. Where's the proof that it works?
