A San Diego court commissioner ended the Google Glass ticket case because there wasn't enough evidence Reuters reported.
"There is no testimony it was operating or in use while Ms. Abadie was driving," John Blair, San Diego court commissioner on the case said Thursday Reuters reported. An insider also did not show up to the stand to state how fast Abadie was going Reuters reported.
Cecilia Abadie, who Fox News described as a self-described geek and Google Glass pioneer, was reportedly wearing the new connected eyewear when she was pulled over in what was a first for the new connected eyewear device.
Abadie, was cited for suspicion of going 80 mph in a 65 mph speed limit zone, and driving while wearing the high-tech frames Oct. 30 The Associated Press reported. She was also cited for wearing Google Glass as a visual monitor, however there was no proof the device was actually on Reuters reported.
According to Fox News, the rule found in section 27602 of the California regulations says "a person shall not drive a motor vehicle if a television receiver, a video monitor, or a television or video screen ... is visible to the driver while driving the motor vehicle."
"A cop just stopped me and gave me a ticket for wearing Google Glass while driving!" Cecilia Abadie said in a post on her Google Plus account immediately following the incident. "The exact line says: Driving with Monitor visible to Driver (Google Glass)," Abadie said in the post. "Is #GoogleGlass illegal while driving or is this cop wrong???" Abadie said in the post. "Any legal advice is appreciated!! This happened in California. Do you know any other #GlassExplorers that got a similar ticket anywhere in the US?" Abadie said in the post.
The officer who stopped Abadie was at first not contemplating citing her for donning the product until she reportedly quarrelled Reuters reported.
"She got a little argumentative about whether or not it was legal for her to wear them," the officer said according to Daily Tech.
