I was driving home on a small one way street, just before pulling up to an all-way stop sign, I decided to dial my house. It was going to be a really fast call just to let my family know that I was close. I stopped at an all-way sign and saw an officer pull up simultaneously at a perpendicular street, at that point I took the phone away from my ear and put it on my lap with speaker mode. I signaled him to go first, he signaled me back to go first, as I drove by, he turned on his sirens and went after me and gave me a ticket, he said “it’s illegal to even hold a phone in your hand.” I think that’s a little absurd, I was on a tiny street with no cars and had the phone in my hand for only 10 seconds. I also own a headset and I would have used it for a longer call. I’d like to fight this ticket, does anybody have any advice ?
Thanks in advance.
