Students starting classes at the University of Ottawa were schooled Tuesday in the rules surrounding distracted driving by Ottawa police and the school’s security team.
The “Leave the Phone Alone” campaign is aimed at drivers in their late teens and early 20s — a demographic that is more likely to text and drive — and informs them of the details of what constitutes distracted driving and the new penalties that came into effect on Sept. 1.
The minimum fine for drivers caught using electronic devices is now $490, plus three demerit points. Get caught three times, and you’ll soon find yourself with a suspended driver’s license.
