pablo said:technically he may still be in the wrong - is it not illegal to "use" a phone? Not just talk on one?
Even lifting it to look at it may be breaking the law.
Dunno tho just a thought
pablo said:hands free are ok as you arent using your hands. Its silly but thats the way it is
brendy said:phone or not they can say you temporarily crossed a line or wernt concentrating, same as careless driving.
DCi Tigger said:the phone must never be in your hand while the car is in motion
Porter said:get a record of your phone calls in and out
also with that it would be hard to prove you touched it, esp if no calls were made or received!!
Graphic_chick said:sure fitted hands free kits are legal are they not......
what about their radios are they aloud to use them while driving? is that not a tempoary distraction?
local friendly police constable was on the way to a call out at the weekend, did a dukes of hazard stunt over a roundabout at 80mph and straight into someones glass fronted house in the police van... just shows were safer than them
slow_assed_clio said:what about fiddling with the radio, lighting a cigarette, drinking a bottle of juice (nothing else) or even eating something, like many people do etc etc ???
