## Caption

😳 A Florida deputy ticketed a woman for allegedly holding her phone in her right hand while driving — except she doesn’t have a right hand.

Kathleen Thomas was pulled over in Lake Worth Beach on February 11 after Deputy Yosvani Quesada claimed he saw her using the phone behind the wheel.

Thomas immediately raised her right arm to show why his version of events couldn’t have happened the way he described it.

The bodycam gets even more awkward when the deputy asks her to swear “hand to God,” prompting her to raise the same arm again.

He then tells her to use her “other hand,” but still proceeds with the traffic stop.

Thomas ultimately received a $116 citation for a handheld wireless-device violation.

After the footage went viral, the citation was dismissed in May for insufficient evidence.

The story didn’t end there, because an internal Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office investigation later found that Quesada had misunderstood the legal elements required to establish the violation.

PBSO said his actions violated agency policies and procedures, resulting in a verbal reprimand in August.

If a driver can physically disprove an officer’s accusation on the spot, should the ticket ever have been written in the first place?

What are your thoughts? 🤔💭
