KAMLOOPS — RCMP have released the results of a distracted driving blitz conducted at several Kamloops intersections last week.
The two-day blitz resulted in officers handing out 52 tickets for drivers using electronic devices behind the wheel.
The fine for those drivers is $368 each, or $888 if it’s the second ticket in the same year.
Even more surprising than the distracted driving complaints may be the 59 seatbelt violations recorded by officers during the two-day operation.
