Title: Cell phone ticket = 5 points
Post by: Buzz on September 18, 2014, 05:12:07 PM
I wasn't aware until recently that the point penalty for the use of cell phones while driving was increased from 3 to 5, as of a year ago July. This applies to talking and texting. I don't advocate it, but I don't know that it's a worse offense than running a red light, which is only 3 points. Anyway, forewarned is forearmed.
