PEI to Implement Ban on Cell Phone Use While Driving
Prince Edward Island (PEI) is the latest province to enact hands-free legislation that prohibits the use of a handheld electronic device, including cell phones, while driving.
The new PEI law will officially come into effect tomorrow: Saturday, January 23, 2010. Fines for offenders will range from $250 to $400, and three demerit points; making it one of the most severe punishments in Canada (most fines hover in the $100 range with the exception of Saskatchewan, where it’s $280 and up to four demerit points.)
Similarly, with legislations in Ontario, B.C., and Saskatchewan as of February 1; officers will begin the process with warnings before dolling out tickets in full force.
