An Alberta man was hit with a $287 ticket for using his cell phone while waiting in line at a Tim Hortons’ drive-thru.
Under the Alberta Highway Traffic Act, using a cell phone while in control of a vehicle results in an infraction for drivers.
The man’s car was in motion while in the drive-thru and was reportedly quite rude to the officer.
However, officers can use discretion when handing out tickets.
Do you think this man should have been charged?
