Whenever I make a Timmie's run I'll usually text people asking them if they want somethingwhile iI'm in the drive through waiting to be served. Could I be charged for this? I'm pretty sure the ohta does not apply to parking lots, not sure if that extends to drivethroughs as well.

Re: Texting while driving in drive through
Short answer is no. Long answer is some roads within, lets say a large shopping area/mall, may have arrangements to be classified as a highway. Not that a drive thru line would have that type of classification, but if you're navigating through this type of area, be careful while you use the roads within.

Re: Texting while driving in drive through
Does there have to be a specific agreement in place for private property (like a mall road) to be considered a "highway" or is it just the fact that it is generally used by the public?
