NEW YORK -- Police have sent a message to more than 3,700 drivers they said were talking or texting behind the wheel -- Hang up. The New York Police Department issued 3,753 summonses for using hand-held cell phones while driving during the first 18 hours of a daylong crackdown Thursday. Each ticket carries a fine of up to $150.
The department said it issued an average of 617 summonses a day last year for cell-phone offenses.
On one hand, texting while driving is bad, but it seems like that's a LOT of manpower dedicated to a relatively small problem.
