It’s €350 in the Netherlands, but it is also enforced. There’s special camera’s on highwats to detect for phone use. If you use a phone while riding a bicycle, that’s €140. That one isn’t enforced as much (but I’ve seen plenty of teenager get one), but I think its good that the fine exists.
Ontario couldn’t even put speed cameras in school zones without drivers claiming “unfair fines”, “tax on driving”, “it’s not legitmate if it wasn’t a cop”, and “this is an attack on our freedom of mobility”.
Simple, look it up, when they are issuing tickets, what percentage are Rich-Super Rich Economic Classes/Owners & Poor Economic Class/Employees?
I know they are sending out tickets to violators, if they were not media would all over it, especially outside The USA. When I still drove, many years ago, have had violated the traffic laws & had Red Light Camera catch me once & then had them issue me a traffic ticket, when it was not my vehicle, because the processing corporation suck so bad, not even on the same coast of The USA!
A) how was this not illegal yet
B) $100 fine is an insult to anyone not in a car. That is fuck all in fines compared to the severity of consequences distracted driving can cause.
Ontario is $615, or $1000 if you try and fight it, but since 2020, police stopped enforcing.
Also 3 demerit points and 3 days licence suspension, huge hit on insurance.
Second conviction, $2000 and 6 points, 7 day suspension
Third conviction, $3000, 6 points and 30 day suspension, and insurnace will cancel and force you to a predatory insurer for 5 years.
All bullshit, no one gets charged.

“Tax on driving” sounds like a good idea, imho. Use the proceedings for public transport
Right, what a bunch of snowflakes. Don’t speed and it’s not a problem. Fucking conservatives.
“All bullshit, no one gets charged.” BINGO, got to use police & authorities to keep the poor in line.
If no one is getting charged, then how are they targeting the poor?

I agree the fine should a lot more expensive.
