Vancouver driver busted with cellphone, tablet attached to steering wheel

No hands, big problem.

A Vancouver motorist was ticketed on Wednesday for driving with an iPhone and a tabletattached to his steering wheel.

The Vancouver Police Department's traffic unit tweeted a photo of the elaborate setup. The cellphone hooked up to a charger appeared to be attached to the wheel with zipties. The tablet seemed to be wedged in between them.

"Can't make it up," an officer wrote.

Police handedthe driver an $81 ticket for failing to produce his driver's licence but, following"a lengthy conversation about road safety," did not issue a ticket for distracted driving, according to a police spokesman.

"Based on the information collected during their conversation, our officer decided that educating the driver about the devices would be the mosteffective approach," Const. Jason Doucettesaid in a statement.

A distracted driving ticket comes with a $368 fine.
