Thirty-four drivers were ticketed during a distracted driving campaign in Saint John.

Police said the campaign ran from November 24 to 27 and focused on enforcing traffic laws and educating motorists about the dangers of distraction.

The Saint John Police Force said one suspended driver was given a court date and one vehicle was towed.

Transport Canada defines distracted driving as any time a driver’s attention is taken away from the road, such as texting, talking on the phone, eating, or using navigation systems.

The agency warns that even a brief distraction can impair performance and increase the risk of a collision.

Police said they will continue targeted traffic enforcement across the city.
