The first fine by using an Apple Watch while driving went to a man who is from Quebec, Canada. He is the first person encountered such kind of embarrassing experience.
His is name is called Jeffrey Macesin. He was fined with a $120 penalty and 4 scores on his license after the police detected he used the Watch device while driving.
According to Section 439.1 of the Quebec Highway Safety Code the Pincourt resident got fined as no one can use a handheld device, including a telephone function while driving a road vehicle.
Macesin was using the watch to change the music tracks on his iPhone when he pulled over which was against the ruling based on the Section 439.1.
Macesin told CTV Montreal that he had the Watch charged in the bad but the auxiliary cable was plugged in the radio which controls his phone to play music. So he changed songs with hands while driving on the road.
Macesin was going to a city called Vaudreuil when a police car coming after him and the police did not have the lights on. Then the police turned on the lights and Macasin wondered the police wanted him to pull over.
He continued, ” The watch is not so much handheld, it is on my wrist. This is a controversial problem. Isn’t it? I think this problem need to be discussed”.
