The law allows a police officer to pull a person over when it is safe to do so. It does not have to be in the area where the incident took place.
Texting is done in both heavy traffic and in rural areas in light traffic. The recent DOA in Ridge is a good example of it in a rural area away from the heavy traffic.
As I mentioned, this is a daily occurrence.
easier to just cite the speeders in more rural areas. It's clear what they were doing. Of course in St. Mary's County District Court if you receive a ticket you are assumed guilty so they can write what they like.Texting is done in both heavy traffic and in rural areas in light traffic.

I say that after hearing how one person had to wait months for their ticket to be adjudicated because the officer refused to show up in court.
All correct in your comments. I am an old fogey and don't use my cell while driving. I hate cell phones, but that is another topic. And, yes, I see people all the time not being 'hands free'. That is a lot for LEO to keep up with. The good thing is because of tech, phone usage can be traced in the case of an accident.

Yes. But, they usually don't pursue it.
I don't agree that they don't use it. This is not auto related, but the text/GPS capability is how they found Lauren Wallen's body; the poor girl that was murdered by her deranged boyfriend. They found her body by her last text to her sister. That happened within the last month. And, texts are available online; at least, I know that from Verizon. But, they do disappear at some point.
