The District is netting more than $1 million a year nabbing drivers gabbing on their cell phones while driving. More than 10,800 tickets for driving while using a cell phone have been issued this fiscal year, which ends Friday, according to the D.C. Department of Motor Vehicles.
In the past four years, the city averaged about 11,980 tickets a year, or the equivalent of about 33 tickets a day.
