OPP issue fines for cellphone use

The Kenora Detachment of the OPP says it has been issuing fines for


people who have been driving and using their cell-phones while driving.

Inspector Dave Lucas told the police services board this week that about
20 tickets have been issued locally.

The new law went into effect back in October of 2009.

The maximum fine for using a cellphone while driving is 500 dollars.
