"But distracted driving is more than just using your cell phone while behind the wheel — according to the official RCMP website, distracted driving is anything that can lead to a driver’s impaired judgement while on the road, including:

Talking on a cellphoneTextingReading (books, maps, newspapers)SmokingPersonal groomingAdjusting the radio/CD or playing extremely loud musicTalking to passengers while fatiguedEating and driving

On the issue of eating and drinking while driving, the RCMP said that “it's best to avoid eating and drinking while driving” and recommends that “if you need to take a drink, wait until you are stopped at a red light.”"

Is it just me or is it really messed up looking at this picture. The "York Mills" sign is the only thing that they mirrored back.

The letters on the front of an emergency vehicle are mirrored so when you look In The mirror you can read it when they are behind you.

Unless this cruser spends most of its time driving backward down the road. Somone should be fired

Am I the only one nervous about this??
Need some extra revenue this month? Oh that guy just took a sip from his coffee. That’s a $400 fine please.

Also wasnt there talk at some point of just out right licence suspension for distracted driving.

So now you change the radio station and risk losing your licence?

Even the telephone number on top of the building is backwards, but not the York Mills sign???????

And if it was taken through the rear window or in a mirror...the driver taking the picture is going the wrong way!

The photo is very distracting to the main story.

Somehow I don't think you exit right through the median for York Mills on the DVP.....

I guess if you were chowing down on a Big mac and you were all over the road trying to avoid mayo dripping on your shirt, might be grounds for a distracted driving ticket.

That's the way I feel about it too.

Like the law they introduced last year - waiting for pedestrians to exit the cross walk before turning the corner.
In practice, nobody does it. But if you do something stupid, they have a way to get you.

Adjusting the radio/CD or playing extremely loud music Talking to passengers

This is the shit that concerns me. Too much ambiguity and openness for roadside interpretation like every new law seems to be these days.
