Jason Humphreys told authorities he hid the cellphone jammer on the passenger seat of his car since he didn’t like people to use their cellphones while driving.

An individual from Florida who had stashed a high-powered cellphone jammer under the passenger seat of his Toyota Highlander has been fined $48,000 for disrupting cellular service on his daily commute to Tampa.

According to the FCC’s order, Jason Humphreys has been ordered to pay the fine since his actions “caused actual interference to cellular service along a significant portion of Interstate 4, and disrupted police and other emergency communications.”

In 2014, during an earlier incident of the same nature, FCC agents along with the police had been tracking hard to pinpoint the source of the moving cellphone jammer when they narrowed down their search to Humphreys.

Humphreys told authorities he was “fed up with watching cell phone usage while people were driving.” His noble intentions aside, it turns out that Florida does not actually have ban the usage of cellphones while driving. Only texting is banned. On the other hand, the FCC has some rather strict regulation when it comes to messing with the ability to communicate for emergency workers.

The FCC also does not take too kindly to companies who sell cellphone jamming devices either. In fact, recently the agency fined CTS Technology Co, a Chinese company, $35 million for having marketed 285 different models of signal jamming devices.
