The news of the arrest of two men who were charged for driving distracted at a newport news station was a major event. It was the first time that we have heard about a police officer using his radio or mobile device while driving. The arrests and charges were announced on the morning news, and it was a big deal for the community. A lot of people had mixed feelings about it, and some of the community was upset.

Police have been using their mobile devices and radios while they drive for years. Many city police departments now have their own police radio stations. In this case, police were arrested for driving while using their mobile devices and radios. That’s pretty common and not that surprising.
Some people feel it violates the privacy of people who have their own phones. This is a bit complicated. If a police officer is using a police mobile radio while driving, his or her own phone is not being used either, so it is fine. Most police departments (and most state police departments) have a policy of not using their own mobile devices while driving. But, there is a big difference between using a police mobile radio while driving and using your own phone in the car.
The police department of Newport, Rhode Island decided to take this case a bit more seriously. A few weeks ago, they arrested a 28 year old man for driving with a revoked license. Now, he’s being charged with operating with a suspended license. This is a felony punishable by a year in jail, fines, and/or both. The reason the police are doing this is that they are trying to determine if the driver has any medical conditions.
In the same week, the state of Florida also decided to arrest a car owner for driving with a suspended license. A judge in Mobile, Alabama has also ordered a man to pay thousands of dollars in fines. The police department of Mobile, Alabama also arrested a man for driving with a suspended license.
This is about as ridiculous as arresting someone for smoking pot or driving with a suspended license. The guy who got arrested was a professional race car driver, and he was only driving with a suspended license because of the race car. Also, driving with a suspended license is a crime.
The guy who was arrested was a professional race car driver, and the guy who got arrested was an amateur race car driver. So while it’s true that the police department has a suspended license, the fact is they don’t have the right to arrest a guy for driving with a suspended license. It’s still a crime to drive with a suspended license.
In the latest news that hit the news outlets, it appears that a newport news employee is in the hot seat as we speak. Its a very serious issue and should never happen in the first place. There are very serious criminal repercussions to this situation, and the proper procedure for addressing this situation would be to suspend the police department from racing for a year.
This is a very serious situation, and these people deserve to be taken off the streets and put in jail for a year. However, if this person is guilty of anything, at least they’ll get to live in a nice, safe, clean jail for a year.
