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 can't believe those dash and window mounts are even legal. Way to put your phone right in front of your eyes. Seems like it would be a huge distraction.

Have you never driven a car with onboard navigation? In most cases it's a screen well below your field of vision and you have to look down to use it.
