A Police Helicopter Caught This Guy Playing Pokemon Go While Driving

The York Regional Police helicopter spotted a Mercedes being driven erratically in Vaughan, Canada. When the driver was stopped by officers on the ground, it was revealed he'd been playing Pokemon Go while driving...

After being stopped by police in the early hours of Monday morning, the Mercedes driver was given a “stern warning” about how dangerous it can be driving while distracted. “York Regional Police would like to remind members of the public and players that any distraction while driving or walking on or near roadways can be hazardous,” the force said in a statement.

How we’d like to be in a world of common sense where such advice is unnecessary…

So the police has the time and the man force to follow around an idiot playing pokemon in the middle of the night (you know the really deadly stuff) with a helicopter but can’t be bothered with stolen cars… GG WP! pokemon is evil, made by satan, 10/10 would kill again thanks to pokemon. Keep up the good work officer

Distracted driving is taken very seriously in Ontario.
I’d say he’s lucky he got a warning.
It is possible to receive a large ticket and points on your licence which obviously increases your monthly or yearly costs of insurance.

If you pause the video at 1:06 you can actually see my work. That building is where I make car parts mainly brakes for the chrysler vehicles the reason why I know this is because I turn left into the parking lot and park there. 100% dead serious. I start Monday I had the interview a week ago.
