Abstract: We prove that if $Esubset{BbbF}_q^d$, $dge2$, $FsubsetoperatornameGraff(d-1,d)$, the set of affine $d-1$-dimensional planes in ${BbbF}_q^d$, then $|Delta(E,F)|gefracq2$ if $|E||F|>q^{d+1}$, where $Delta(E,F)$ the set of distances from points in $E$ to lines in $F$. In dimension three and higher this significantly improves the exponent obtained by Pham, Phuong, Sang, Vinh and Valculescu.
