Re: Distracted driving - I'm fighting - but I never got a court date
Theres cases won against the court because having a cellphone holder or making sure it fits in your cupholder is not enforceable. In short, drivers shouldnt have to buy phones that will fit into their cupholders and shouldnt have to buy cellphone holders just to comply with the law.

Re: Distracted driving - I'm fighting - but I never got a court date
Wasnt even holding my phone - it just so happens that my hand was in contact with it lmao but okay - that sucks - ill have to keep checking. And my hand was in contact with it because im trying to keep it steady as i drive (for the gps). I literally had 2 fingers touching my phone to keep it in my cup holder. I'd argue i shouldnt be punished while trying to drive safe, because if the phone went out of the cup and im trying to know where im going - a sec of eyes off the road can be dangerous.

Distracted driving - I'm fighting - but I never got a court date
I got a ticket by a predatory downtown police for distracted driving - I wasnt using my phone - i was touching it - on the ticket itself it doesnt even say USING PHONE/TEXTING - it says HOLDING PHONE. Anyways - i got the ticket on my birthday and that was Aug 2020 and since then I've been checking my ticket online every week. I havent got a court date yet; however, I wanted to know if there any statute of limitation on this? So that I dont have to keep checking this every week after gods know how long?
