We’ve had plenty of warning about new, stiffer penalties for distracted driving in Saskatchewan, and today’s the day they take effect. As of today, getting caught driving distracted will cost you a lot more in Saskatchewan, with a $580 dollar fine and 4 demerit points for a 1st offence. It’s $14 hundred, 4 points and a 7 day vehicle seizure for a 2nd conviction in a year, $21 hundred dollars, more points and seizure for a 3rd conviction.
