I have enjoyed reading some of the arguments as to why the police should not be allowed to take your phone. The one about what if your phone was confiscated and you needed to make an emergency call was the best one by far.
My thought is they should make the fine $1,000 first, but I am fine with the taking away of the phone.
If you don't want a ticket, or your phone taken away, you have the power to make sure that does not happen.
For anyone who cries police state, you can't really tell me that you are comfortable driving down deerfoot beside the driver who is texting. Better yet, how about some kids who are playing on thier quiet residential street and the get hit by a distracted driver who is updating thier twitter feed?
How many hours a day do you need to be connected for?
