Under the proposed bill, a person caught streaming video while driving could be fined a maximum of $75 for a first offense and up to $150 for offenses that follow.

On Friday, as we were heading into St. Patrick's Day Weekend, I posted a piece here called "This Weekend, Saying No to a Breathalyzer Means Saying Yes to a Jail Visit."

It appears that not everyone listened.
