Hand Held Device Ticket
What is a Hand Held Device Ticket?
A hand held device ticket is issued when a driver is caught using a mobile phone or any other hand held electronic device while driving. This type of ticket aims to reduce distracted driving, which is a significant cause of road accidents. The law is strict to ensure that drivers remain focused on the road, thereby enhancing safety for all road users.
PENALTIES FOR A HAND-HELD OR
ENTERTAINMENT DEVICE CHARGE
The penalties for a hand-held or entertainment device charge for drivers with a G-class license in Ontario are as follows:
- For the first offence: a fine between $500 and $1,000 as well as a 3-day suspension of your license;
- For the second offence: a fine between $500 and $2,000 as well as a 7-day suspension of your license;
- For the third or additional subsequent offence: a fine between $500 and $3,000 as well as a 30-day suspension of your license.
