Distracted Driving Laws in Canada: What Changed in 2025

Introduction

Distracted driving is one of the top causes of collisions in Canada. In 2025, provinces have introduced tougher penalties and new technology rules to combat it. If you're a Canadian driver, or planning to become one, it's critical to know what's now considered “distracted” — and how to stay compliant.

What Counts as Distracted Driving?

The traditional image is texting while driving, but it now includes:

Using a smartwatch or wearable tech while driving

Eating or grooming behind the wheel

Operating in-car screens for entertainment

Typing on GPS or infotainment systems

2025 Legal Updates by Province

Ontario: Now includes hands-on smartwatch use as a $1,000 fine and 3 demerit points.

British Columbia: Crackdown on infotainment system use��even touching the screen is an offense.

Alberta & Manitoba: Camera enforcement of distracted driving is expanding to highways.

All provinces: Repeat offenders face license suspension after the second ticket in a 12-month period.

How to Stay Safe and Legal

Use voice commands when interacting with your phone or GPS.

Mount your device securely if you must use it for navigation.

Avoid all personal grooming, eating, or multitasking while the vehicle is in motion.

Distracted driving isn't just about devices—it’s about focus. Use licenseprep.ca to test your hazard detection and reaction times with scenario-based quizzes.

EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I. - A Florida man armed with guns and thousands of rounds of ammunition has been arrested following a wild, high-speed police chase that led to multiple crashes in Rhode Island last week, according to police.

Joshua Pavao, 43, whose last known address is in Kissimmee, is facing multiple charges including 106 counts for possessing a large-capacity feeding device – a magazine, belt, drum, feed strip or similar device that can hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition – eluding law enforcement and discharging firearm from a motor vehicle. 

The incident began at around 2:20 p.m. on Dec. 1 after the East Providence Police Department received a call reporting shots fired at a home in what appeared to be a "targeted attack," officials said in a news release. The bullet struck a car window at the home. 

Police dispatch released a description of the suspect's vehicle, a black Nissan Armada with an unknown Florida registration plate, and a search began.

Minutes later, the vehicle was spotted by a detective, who attempted to make a traffic stop, but the driver, later identified as Pavao, refused and kept driving, prompting a high-speed chase.

During the chase, Pavao's vehicle reportedly struck multiple other cars, which resulted in minor injuries. Following the collision, numerous loaded long-gun magazines were thrown from the suspect's vehicle and found scattered at the crash site.

Hundreds of rounds of long gun ammunition were also strewn throughout the area, police said.

Pavao abandoned his vehicle after it became inoperable following the multiple crashes and ran from officers but was ultimately caught near a restaurant and taken into custody.

Inside his vehicle, officers found thousands of rounds of ammunition in three duffle bags and many loose rounds throughout the interior of the vehicle.

No firearms were found inside the vehicle, at the large crash scene or on the suspect. However, a short time later, a resident contacted police after finding a backpack nearby, where officers found three loaded handguns and a pellet-style rifle. A bullet-proof vest was also found in the backpack.

"This investigation remains very active as we try to understand the motive and intentions of the suspect," Police Chief Christopher Francesconi said in a statement. "We have been working with other law enforcement agencies to further the investigation. " ____________________

DPD central station, evidence archive. November 9, 2038, around 6pm

Detective Gavin Reed opens his eyes after having passed out from wanton misuse of an electronic device. At least that’s how he will phrase what has happened in his accident report.

Let the chief believe Gavin got a jolt from tinkering with the roomba! It sure sounds less humiliating than “Connor beat the living daylights out of me”...

Gavin looks up - and into a mirror. The android on the wall is covered in his own blood, too, and where the human's joints ache, the machine is missing three appendages.

Gavin: "What the fuck... I know peeps who collect... stamps or... beer cans or... cats. But Hank goes and fills the archive with creepy android wrecks. Ey, what gives. The most freakish piece of his collection follows him around like a baby chick."

Gavin remembers this particular prisoner: The Park Avenue deviant, the first case of android on human violence, that couldn't get hushed up anymore. The thing that hangs so pathetically from the wall now once had made the news. But only a handful of people still know that Gavin’s rival, the android detective Connor, had done in the Park Avenue deviant. Philipp, was it? Philipp Daniels.

"Probably not too fond of CyberLife's golden child, are you, Philipp?" Gavin mutters to himself and then, almost without conscious decision, he picks up a remote control from a desk. Each and every electronic device is registered in the remote's tiny brain, and that includes the androids.

Gavin: "Waky-waky!"

Daniel opens his eyes. He sees a human he doesn't recognize. The man's police badge catches the prisoner's eye - as do the bruises all over his face.

Daniel: "What happened to YOU?"

Gavin: "Connor."

Daniel: "Ah. Same here."

Mirror indeed!

Daniel labors to open his mouth for another question. Or maybe in insult, Gavin wonders? The prisoner’s mimic is overtly resigned, hiding a layer of hatred, that in turn hides bitter disappointment.

No sound escapes Daniel’s lips. For how is the mechanism to perform this task, when the android's mind isn't even sure what to say? Whenever he had been certain in his life, he had erred and paid the price for it: Believing himself to be apprecciated, thinking he wanted John dead and trusting Connor.

Opening and closing his mouth like a fish, Daniel studies the human some more. Just now he presses another button on the remote...

...and then the floor closes in quickly, as the android slumps from the wall.

"YOUCH!" Daniel cries out. 

Where a human would feel pain all over his body now, Daniel gets a series of collision protocols and damage reports in short succession. Every pain for an android is only ever a headache, and there is no escape from it.

Gavin: "Get up!"

Daniel: "Let go off me! I'm not letting you dispose of me!!!"

Gavin: "Not my intention! Just hold still, so that I can... Ooof!"

Gavin: "Try to hang on, 'kay?"

Daniel: "What are you...?"

Gavin: "What everyone does: Nicking stuff from the archive.”

Daniel: “Why?”

Gavin: “With the mass destruction, I figure later this week any salvageable android will be worth its weight in gold. Or, if you plastic revolutionaries manage to succeed at the great liberation of household appliances, having saved your life will earn me brownie points with the deviant leader. So, you sorry lot are coming with me now, one by one! Win or lose, I WILL have a future and it won’t be in the gutter!!!"

Daniel: "You know, when I asked the police for a ride, I meant a car. Not a piggy-back ride."

Gavin: "And I refused to accept the deviant cases, because I preferred solveable cases for my promotion credit. Yet here I am, toting a literal deviant around. You never get what you want. Get used to it!"

Daniel: "Did you... get used to that? That's sad."

Daniel's hand jitters. Unable to keep the grip on the human's jacket firm, he slips off the detective's back. Gavin in turn sinks to the ground next to his prize. Slight as the weight is, so briefly after his fight with Connor, the man isn't able to carry even half an android out of the archive.

Gavin: “See? I was right. There goes my get rich quick scheme. Can’t even get out of this room myself, let alone with a plastic bag full of blue gold.”

Daniel: “You remind me of Connor: Determined, self assured, so damn capable and in charge and I bet you both think you are incredibly funny. But you ran into a few walls too many and the frustration built up. That’s how I want to see Connor, too!”

Gavin: “You see all that with one and a half functional eyes? Detective material, are you?” 

Gavin snorts. Now he views even a housekeeper as a threat to his job security, when in truth this one’s insights stem from his directive to care for its humans!

Gavin: "Everything changed and is changing even further as we decompose down here."

Daniel: "I HATE change!"

Gavin: "Big deal! I mean, you're the plastic-dude who hates everyone and everything."

Daniel: "Don't you...?"

Gavin: "I don't know. Perkins was down here briefly. I heard him say something, but didn't understand what. But he left again and left me with the trash - that's you. So I don't know anymore if those fuckers deserve my loyalty.”

Daniel winces. That has sounded familiar!

Gavin: “I think it's for the best if I'm on my own side from now on. No one else is."

Daniel: "Can you... hate Connor... for me? I don't... I shouldn't... hate him. But if you loathed the sucker, too... then we'd have something in common... and I... I wouldn't... be so alone..."

Gavin: "Fucking alone."

Daniel: "Huh?"

Gavin: "You gotta say it the right way: I wouldn't be so fucking alone."

Red blood mingles with blue. Upstairs a revolution unfolds. Or a riot. Or a voiding of warranty. Choosing the exact phrasing will be the vistorious faction's privilege. But down here? What do Daniel and Gavin care for Markus' ideals or CyberLife's greed? Whatever happens next, it will be ordinary people like them having to bear the brunt of it.

Time passes...

Is it already November 12? And does the blonde thatch belong to a certain PL600 android? Daniel is still wearing a uniform, but instead of “Android, designed by CyberLife/Made in Detroit” this one says “Officer in Training Phillips, Daniel Jonathan”

The door opens and in walk two men. Their steps are firm, but way more lightweigt than those of humans of compareable stature. They must be androids, yet no LED, armband or marker is visible on them. The visitors therefore must be deviants, but they entered on their own, not cuffed or even escorted by the cops. Daniel takes in the sight with a deep satisfaction. Even having to see Connor again cannot sully the moment.

Daniel: "Look, Gavin we've won! The confident one must be the deviant leader you told me about!"

Gavin: "That means we've LOST."

Daniel: “Nah, you must be mistaken. I have an open receipt on a Manfred, Markus, a fine for vandalism downtown. Only persons can get fined.”

Gavin: “That’s exactly...”

Daniel (not listening): “Hey, let’s see if Connor is due a fine, too!”

Markus: "You okay, Connor? Facing one's past mistakes isn't pleasant. Five android death camps say "Your fault, Markus". Your victims at least are still alive. Want to tell me who they are?"

Connor: "Just the two most annoying things in my life."

Markus: "I thought that was Lt. Anderson?"

Connor: "Hank isnt a thing, Markus!!!"

Markus: "Ah, my bad. Sorry." *chuckles*

Markus smiles, when he listens to the cop duo argue whether they have won or lost the revolution. Arguments fly back and forth, but one thing android and human don't question in the slightest, even when they address each other with slurs: The "we".

It's perfect, actually, the deviant leader thinks. One planet - two species, that is his slogan. And in this moment, here at DPD central station, it is represented not by progressive, open-minded individuals, but by two spiteful (and therefore relatable) assholes. The public will love them!

Gavin: “...and besides, Connor was only an item on loan when he worked for the DPD, not a real officer. Even if he signs on this very minute, you still have something like ten hours workplace seniority over him.”

Daniel: “Haha! So now you HAVE to admit that we’ve won, both of us!”

(So I found some amputee presets for my sims and decided to re-shoot my OTP’s the origin story.)

GoPro as a Dash Cam: Why It’s Not the Ideal Replacement

Can You Use a GoPro as a Dash Cam?

Technically, yes—you can mount and record with a GoPro in your car. However, using a GoPro as a dash cam comes with limitations that make it less suitable for long-term or everyday driving use compared to dedicated dash cams.

GoPro vs. Dash Cam: Key Differences

While both devices record video, they serve very different purposes:

Power Supply: Dash cams are designed for continuous power via car outlets or hardwiring. GoPros rely on battery life, which may only last 1–2 hours unless hardwired (which voids portability).

Loop Recording: Dash cams use loop recording to overwrite old footage automatically. GoPros do not support loop recording by default, which means you’ll run out of storage unless you manually manage files.

Auto Start/Stop: Dash cams power on/off with the car. GoPros require manual operation unless configured with third-party solutions.

These differences highlight why a GoPro as a dash cam can’t fully meet the needs of daily driving.

Lack of Key Dash Cam Features

Dedicated dash cams offer features like:

G-sensor for collision detection

Parking mode for 24/7 surveillance

Time/date stamping for legal evidence

Discreet design to avoid theft

A GoPro lacks many of these, making it less reliable for critical driving situations.

When a GoPro Might Be Useful

A GoPro as a dash cam may work well for short trips, scenic drives, or off-road adventures—but not as a substitute for round-the-clock recording or legal documentation.

Using a GoPro as a dash cam may seem convenient, but it falls short in automation, safety features, and practicality—making a dedicated dash cam the better long-term solution.

Why More Drivers Are Choosing a 3 Channel Dash Cam for Complete Road Coverage

As road safety becomes a growing concern, many drivers are turning to the 3 Channel Dash Cam for its ability to capture comprehensive footage. But what makes this device increasingly popular, and how does it offer more value than a standard front or dual dash cam?

What Is a 3 Channel Dash Cam?

A 3 channel dash cam records from three angles: the front of the vehicle, the rear, and inside the cabin. This setup ensures that all major viewpoints are covered — ideal for rideshare drivers, parents, delivery workers, or anyone wanting full visibility around their vehicle.

What Problems Does a 3 Channel Dash Cam Solve?

High search volume queries show that many drivers ask:

How can I protect myself from false accident claims?

What dash cam is best for Uber or Lyft drivers?

How do I monitor my car while parked?

The 3 channel dash cam addresses these by offering video proof in multiple directions, capturing in-cabin incidents, and supporting features like parking mode and G-sensors to detect motion or impact even when the car is off.

Who Benefits Most from Using One?

Rideshare drivers gain peace of mind with passenger footage.

Parents can monitor teenage drivers from inside and out.

Daily commuters are protected from rear-end collisions and insurance disputes.

Key Features to Look For

Full HD or 4K resolution for clarity

Wide-angle lenses (over 150°)

Infrared night vision for the cabin

Loop recording and large SD card support

Choosing a 3 channel dash cam can significantly enhance your driving security. It's not just about recording accidents — it's about having a full picture, every time you drive.

From Sketch to Game How 3D Modeling Games Brings Your Ideas to Life

Behind every great game lies a journey—from a simple sketch to a fully immersive 3D experience. Whether it’s a detailed car 3D model in a racing game or a complex 3D game environment in an open-world RPG, 3D modeling plays a central role in bringing creative visions to life.

Let’s dive into how this process works and why it’s critical for creating lifelike games.

1. Starting with a Concept: Sketches and Ideas

All games begin with an idea. These early-stage illustrations serve as blueprints for 3D artists, outlining shapes, structures, and aesthetics.

For example, in a racing game, concept artists may design a series of futuristic vehicles that later become detailed 3D vehicle modeling projects. In a fantasy game, sketches of swords, treasure chests, and magical items are turned into props 3D model assets.

2. From 2D to 3D: Building Game Assets

After the initial sketch phase, 3D artists move to specialized software like Blender, Maya, or ZBrush to sculpt high-quality 3D game assets. This stage is where flat sketches gain depth, form, and detail.

For games focused on vehicles, creators spend hours on 3D vehicle modeling, ensuring that the car 3D model looks stylish, realistic, and optimized for performance.

3. Creating Realism: Texturing and UV Mapping

Once the base model is created, the next step involves UV mapping—flattening the 3D model into a 2D layout for painting. Artists apply textures, colors, and patterns that define the final look of the asset.

Textures add details like rust on a sword, paint chips on a race car, or moss on ancient ruins. For large 3D game environments, diverse textures bring realism to landscapes, be it snowy mountains, lush forests, or abandoned cities.

Even small props 3D model assets like barrels or crates, contribute to environmental storytelling when textured properly.

4. Rigging and Animation: Giving Models Movement

Static models aren’t enough in today’s interactive games. Rigging adds an internal skeleton to characters or objects so they can move. This process is essential for animated characters, creatures, or moving machinery.

For example, a car 3D model may need rigged wheels, opening doors, or a working suspension system. In fantasy or sci-fi settings, even props like rotating gears or moving platforms are animated to enhance the player’s experience.

5. Building the World: 3D Game Environments

Creating immersive 3D game environments is more than just modeling trees and buildings. Artists use 3D environment modeling to craft landscapes, interiors, cities, and natural features.

Each 3D game environment is composed of modular elements—mountains, roads, ruins, plants, or sci-fi structures. These reusable components speed up development and create cohesive environments.

Whether you're developing a desert wasteland or a futuristic metropolis, 3D environment modeling is key to world-building.

6. Importing into Game Engines

Once models are complete, they’re imported into engines like Unreal Engine or Unity. This is where the models interact with lighting, physics, and gameplay mechanics.

The engine connects all 3D game assets—characters, environments, and props—into a playable space. During this phase, artists test collision detection, lighting effects, and gameplay interaction.

Well-designed 3D game environments can guide players through levels, hiding clues, secrets, and challenges within the scenery itself.

7. Optimization: Balancing Beauty and Performance

Visual quality is important, but performance matters too, especially on mobile devices and VR platforms. That’s where optimization comes in.

High-poly models are reduced to low-poly versions using techniques like baking and normal mapping. These lighter versions maintain visual quality while boosting performance.

In large 3D game environments, level-of-detail (LOD) systems are used. Assets that are far from the player load at lower resolutions reduce processing demands.

Optimization is especially critical in 3D hard surface modeling where mechanical details can increase polygon counts quickly.

8. Real-World Example: A Racing Game Project

Let’s break it down using a hypothetical racing game:

Car 3D model: The main asset, created with 3D vehicle modeling techniques. Includes different car types, color variants, and animated parts like wheels or spoilers.

3D game environment: Tracks modeled with roads, tunnels, buildings, and weather elements.

Props 3D model: Road signs, barriers, gas stations, and pit crews that enhance realism.

Each element is essential. The seamless integration of all these assets results in a polished, thrilling gaming experience.

The Impact of 3D Modeling on Game Design

High-quality 3D models do more than just look good—they enhance gameplay. A well-crafted 3D game asset can guide the player’s focus, create tension, or tell a story without any dialogue.

Dynamic 3D game environments add depth and exploration opportunities. Realistic 3D vehicle modeling and props ensure that every part of the game feels authentic and engaging.

Emerging Trends in 3D Modeling Games

AI-Powered Modeling: Speeding up asset creation using artificial intelligence.

Procedural Generation: Automating 3D environment modeling using code and algorithms.

VR-Ready Modeling: Creating ultra-optimized assets for immersive experiences.

These advancements allow developers to create bigger worlds, more detailed 3D game assets, and better optimized 3D game environments.

Final Thoughts

From the first pencil sketch to the final textured and animated model, 3D modeling is the bridge between imagination and playable experiences. It allows developers to turn rough ideas into stunning virtual worlds, complete with lifelike characters, detailed vehicles, and immersive landscapes.

Whether you're designing a car 3D model for a high-speed racer, crafting elaborate 3D game environment for an open-world adventure, or sculpting everyday items as props 3D model pieces, each asset contributes to the game's magic.

For those passionate about creating virtual worlds, learning 3D modeling games is a rewarding and exciting career path.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the difference between 3D game assets and 3D game environments? A: 3D game assets are individual models like vehicles, weapons, or props. 3D game environments are complete scenes built using those assets.
