The primary thrust of the rules - use of cell phones - will be incredibly easy to prove. "Your honour, here is the defendant's cell usage statistics, which clearly show they were using their phone at the time they were pulled over."
But anyway, this is for you:
Even yacking on a bluetooth headset isn't exactly safe, but there is no reason why you shouldn't be using one. Or, you know, not reading the f'cking newspaper while flying down the road or putting your makeup on heading down Glenmore.
The only thing wrong with this law is the lack of demerit points. People who do these stupid things deserve to lose their license more than their money.
