Dangerous driver rant

[Bazza]

the first thing my lawyer did was get the phone records of the lady that hit me. Actually most people that knew about my accident automatically assumed that was why she hit me. It turns out no. She just didn't see me.

That's because she wasn't able to get to it - because it fell under her seat!

Hands free ordinances should be mandatory. Sadly, the fines and enforcement for the violations are minimal. If a fine is not painful enough to the offender nor high enough to justify enforcement then nothing happens.
If we could make the fine $250 1st offense $500 2nd offense AND confiscation of their cell phone until the fine is paid or court date . You would get the offenders attention quick and generate enough revenue to justify strict enforcement.
Word would spread rapidly once they got their phone back .

After a 45 day grace period beginning in April when the ordinance goes into effect, the fine will be $150.00, in Smyrna.
