The Governator's Wife Caught Driving With Phone

by Warren Riddle on October 14, 2009 at 03:01 PM


The State of California enacted a cell-phone ban for teenage drivers in 2007, and a hands-free-only policy for everybody else in 2008. Since the latter date, the Highway Patrol has cited over 150,000 drivers for talking on their cells. The TMZ celebrity stalkers, ensuring that famous people be held to the same standards as the plebeians, have repeatedly caught one member of the California ruling class red-handed, and on film, no less.

In response to that citizen's blatant, and highly publicized, disregard for state laws, Governor Arnie has promised "swift action," which will be fun to watch since the mobile blabber happens to be his wife Maria Shriver. Hopefully, Arnold will remember the comments he made about what would happen if his daughter were to break the law. ("She'll be taking the bus.") So, come on Governor. Deal out some retribution and do it with extreme prejudice. Take Maria's license and make her the Running (and Bussing) Woman. [From: TMZ via The Huffington Post]
