Distracted drivers a difficult problem to solve
DeKALB – D.D. is not always a positive term when it comes to driving.
Distracted drivers are a growing concern for many law enforcement agencies and driving instructors as technology such as smartphones, iPads and advanced GPS systems take more eyes off the roads.
In DeKalb, the police department issues between five to 10 warnings or citations each week for texting while driving, said Lt. Jason Leverton. For drivers who get caught, it could cost $125.
