But before [the deputy] could get very far with his explanation, Ms. Thomas held up her right arm. There was no phone in it. There had never been a phone in it because she has no right hand.

Storytime. This happened to my father when he was a cop in the 70s in Toronto. He pulled over two guys because they didn’t have their seat belts on. They both were missing an arm.
He sent them on their way.
What does missing an arm have to do with not wearing the seatbelt?
Good question. In the 70s seatbelts weren’t standardized yet. They weren’t all like the simple click ones we have today.
You would be correct, modern ones you can connect one handed.
Yea I don’t get it either. I don’t use two arms to put on a seatbelt…
You can put on a belt with one arm. Apparently the law came in in 1976 though which is surprising
