Extended Interview: Katie Thomas, woman with one hand, on viral traffic stop over phone use
Footage of Katie Thomas' traffic stop went viral after she was accused of holding a phone in her right hand while driving. The only problem: she doesn't have a right hand. Court records show the citation has been dismissed at the officer's request. CBS News' Cristian Benavides spoke exclusively with Thomas about the stop and the ensuing social media storm.

How FLIC Trust Scores workFLIC Trust Scores turn community ratings into a 0–100 signal about how readers assess a story. Fake News votes lower the score, while Liberal, Conservative, and Independent classifications support it. The formula also rewards a balanced split between Liberal and Conservative ratings instead of treating one political viewpoint as automatically more trustworthy. Scores can change as more people vote and represent community judgment, not a factual verdict or substitute for reading the original reporting. Learn more about how FLIC works.
