| 826009 | 2009-11-01 02:33:00 | According to this (www.nzherald.co.nz) nzherald article, i cannot even touch my phone while i'm driving. So if i want to get my cellphone out of the glovebox and put it in my pocket when i'm driving, would this be legal? | lance4k (4644) | ||
| 826010 | 2009-11-01 02:37:00 | Why do you have to do it while you're driving? It'll take you 5 seconds once you stop to reach into the glovebox, grab it, and take it with you when you leave your vehicle. | somebody (208) | ||
| 826011 | 2009-11-01 02:44:00 | Rummaging around in your glovebox for anthing while driving is probably not the best idea... | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 826012 | 2009-11-01 02:54:00 | what is 'driving' actually? if i am stopped on the side of the road with my engine running and get my phone out of my glovebox to put in my pocket, is this legal? i thought the cops view 'driving' also as car stopped and engine running?

Depends where you're stopped. If it's at a red light or something, that's 'driving'. If you're off the road, or stationary at the side of it out of the traffic flow, that's 'parked'. If you're in that state on a motorway, then it's 'illegally parked' :p. |

| 826014 | 2009-11-01 03:17:00 | The law is quite peculiar about what constitutes driving; I have a friend who was convicted of drink-driving for being found asleep in the drivers' seat of his car with the keys in the ignition. He had no intention of driving, and the keys were in there because he'd had the heater on - police told him if he'd been in the back seat it would've been fine. :illogical | nofam (9009) | ||
| 826015 | 2009-11-01 03:38:00 | hey guys i was looking at the police website and it says to pay a fine/infringement fee you can do it at a westpac branch. Howcome you can't do it at other banks? | lance4k (4644) | ||

Westpac has all the government bank accounts - there may be some special process the payments have to go through (special deposit slips?)... |
