Posted by MickeyT on July 2, 2007, 8:32 am The one most of us were worried was the one that states that as of July 1st. 2007 if a cop sees someone using the cellphone while driving one can get a ticket... FALSE. What is true is the following: All traffic citation fines can be doubled in construction zones, except this one - since the law restricting cell phone use to hands-free gadgets does not take effect until July 2008. When I got this email it didn't have where it came from (except my friend's email) so I checked my favorite website for this sort of thing... www.HablandoPaja.com achis, no actually is www.urbanlegends.com and yeap there it was. Go here to check it for yourself: http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_california_traffic_laws_2007.htm Here you can find most of those emails that sometimes seem a bit too good to be true. It takes a PAJERO to spot another PAJA. Lionel Funes www.HablandoPaja.Com > > FYI Link: Click Here for the Hoax
