Reply To: Cell phone use while driving

At the most, DDD would allow the government to fine those who break the law; therefore if one gets a ticket for talking a cell phone and pays it, it would probably not be considered theft, as the rambam (g’zailah va’aveidah 5:12) says, and as is codified in C.M. 369:. But there is no obligation to obey the actual law. (See bais yoseif 369:14, shu”t maharik 66)
