The woman, identified as Mrs. Hu, was fined $10 ($1.15) after violating regulations that went into effect on New Year's Day by preventing activities that negatively affect other vehicles or pedestrians, broadcast Periscopi.
Reports of imposing these fines, said to be the first in the city, have prompted thousands of comments on the popular Chinese social media platform Weibo, supporting that decision.
Most people see it as a very good idea. Some even demanded that regulations be applied throughout the country to raise awareness of traffic safety.
Others argued that the small fine should be more punitive, suggesting it starts with 100 jurians (c. 11,50)”.
We remember that a large number of accidents around the world are caused by the use of street phones./Periscopi/
