North Wildwood - It looks like the local police departments are going to be giving out tickets with a $250 fine attached to it. Reason, you are talking on your cell while driving. This fine should really add to the city coffers. I don't know about you, but a fine of this magnitude will set me back when paying my monthly bills. There also may be no warning - tickets may be given to first offenses. What else will they come up with to get money from us. Maybe a fine for walking and text/talking at the same time. Texting is bad but Talking. . . Fines started April 1st.

Moderator's Note: 
April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month. We assume the Spouter is referring to a related enforcement campaign. The hands-free laws have been with us for several years now. Don't do the crime, if you can't pay the fine ... just don't do the crime, period. Go hands-free or don't go.
