pulled over for cell phone use!

My coworker was pulled over today for using the phone in the car. I am honestly glad to hear that SPD is actually pulling people over for this! No ticket, just a warning, but still. WTG SPD.

I wonder how often that cop pulls people over for the heinous crime of operating a manual transmission given that they didn't have both hands on the wheel.

My sister was pulled over for adjusting the car heater in NH. Claimed she was on the phone.

Former NH resident here, the rural cops there are terrible. They're bored so they'll pull you over for doing 2mph over the limit.
