OPP Wrap up Distracted Driving Campaign

The Ontario Provincial Police has concluded its recent Distracted Driving campaign. During the March 8th to 14th campaign, officers throughout the province were busy raising awareness among motorists about the dangers of distracted driving behaviour. In the last three years in a row it has taken the lives of more innocent people than impaired driving on OPP patrolled roads. Eleven people have died so far this year in distracted driving related collisions on OPP patrolled roads. The OPP reminds drivers that distracted driving fines have been increased from $155 to $280 as of March 18th. This latest campaign brings the total number of province-wide OPP distracted driving charges up to 4,000 in 2014.
