A Palm Beach County Sheriff's deputy stopped a driver in February after observing the use of a phone in the right hand. When the driver lowered the window, the deputy saw that the driver had no right hand. The deputy issued a citation to the 36-year-old driver anyway.
This week the same deputy asked the court to dismiss the citation. The driver told CBS News she is glad the matter is resolved but hopes for improved police training.
