Super Bowl Sunday wasn't so super for dozens of drivers issued tickets for seatbelt and cellphone violations, Kamloops RCMP reported Tuesday.

A "superbelt" blitz by police at Summit Drive and Columbia Street West resulted in 69 tickets handed out for not using seatbelts.

Other results:

• 24 tickets for using an electronic device

• eight tickets for other violations

• one prohibition notice

• four tickets for intersection offences

• one person arrested for obstruction

• a woman arrested under the Immigration Act

• two impaired drivers taken off the road

"Today's enforcement involved the use of a plain clothes police officer standing at the intersection. As violating motorists drove past the officer the offences were called out to an awaiting police officer nearby to write a ticket," Const. Kathy Prentice said in a press release.

"Many people put the cellphone down or buckle up when they see a police car in the distance — this strategy did not work today."

One impaired driver was caught at 10:15 a.m. — "showing us once again that impaired drivers are on the road at any hour of any day."
