I was on the motorway in slow moving traffic today.

Next thing I'm being pulled over, the officer says I was using my phone while driving, I simply replied that I was not. He fined me and left, the whole ordeal was about 1 minute long.

I'm not sure really what to say here as I just don't do that, and never have - I have a clean driving record of 7 years.

My thinking is that I look extremely bored while sitting in traffic, I had my hat and sunglasses on, and my head leaning on my hand...it probably looks as though I'm looking down just kind of slouched out? I'm really not too sure, my phone sits in my cupholder and doesn't get touched - I have hands free control but at the point in time I was just daydreaming listening to my podcast.

The officer has assumed I was on my phone and quickly gave a ticket with no conversation had.

Just feeling a bit embarrassed about it all and not too sure how to solve it.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Current FT employee with my team facing redundancies. Small team of 7 working for a corporate who are going through the process of making 1 person redundant. Plenty of work to be done but higher management wants this stretched out, the work coming in is on a strong growth trend and overall finances are well up. Corporate is looking to replace the majority of the FT employees with contractors one by one, to do the same work.

Anything to stand on?

Cheers
