Distracted Driving Awareness Campaign on Now

Police and ICBC are trying to raise awareness of the dangers of driving distracted.

It’s part of a month-long enforcement campaign.

Caroline Robinson with ICBC says people need to know that distracted driving is dangerous.

RCMP Constable Rob Gardner says many people seem unaware of what the law is.

Garnder notes if you’re caught driving while using an electronic device, you’ll get $167 fine and three points on your licence.
