The fine and 3 demerit points in Alberta seems like a good start. I agree the police should do more to enforce this though. Get the cops out of the speed traps and onto the roads looking for dangerous drivers.

What's your opinion on drunk driving. I mean losing your license for what having a few beer and driving home that's ridiculous. I pay more attention when I'm drunk. Get the cops out onto the roads looking for dangerous drivers not drunk ones driving well.

On a per time basis the impairment and risk are similar. Though people likely don't talk on cellphones as longs as they are drunk although texting is likely worse.
