i'm ashamed to admit, i just got a ticket.
paid it today. $168. i was just driving from gilroy back..and was just gliding along. "ring!"
"hello?"..i picked it up!!! there was a cop right next to me..i pulled over before he could even blip me with his lights..
he walks up to my car, and i said."my wife said hello". he laughed and gave me a ticket. i wasnt pissed at anyone but myself. glad he was doing his job.
damn..answering was just muscle memory.
but honestly, i dont think talking on the phone is any different than talking to my passengers in the car. they can get pretty involved too. but a law is a law..dialing is dangeroous
