KAMLOOPS — The fines are harsher and there’s more police presence, but drivers around BC including in Kamloops still aren’t leaving their phones alone.

Central Interior Traffic Services pulled over dozens of vehicles today during a distracted driving blitz on Columbia Street West.

Sergeant Mike Pears says by picking up your phone while driving  you could impact someone else’s life, and your own forever.
