City police will be issuing warnings in advance of new distracted driving
legislation set to take effect September 1.
Any form of distracted driving, including eating, grooming, using a handheld cellular device, or a GPS system is grounds for a talking to from police.
"What happens between now and then will be some education, some warnings maybe from officers, but September 1, charges can be laid," says Vince Caleffi, Exec. Dir. for Sheriffs and Security Operations in the province.
