I have a BT set i'm going to use from now on - just link the phone up to it prior to set off and control everything from that. My phone has always been in my pocket when driving unless using navigation, I'd just not not want to ever risk it again with it being 6 points if caught "interacting" with a phone in the car even if on my dock.
Lol. So true.I cant really drive safely these days or use my phone as my full attention is devoted to pot hole evasive maneuvers

It should be a one year driving ban imo.
Well I know someone who fell asleep at the wheel and crashed into a HGV, car flew into the air and landed in a heap. Nobody was hurt luckily but it was so nearly a head on collision. The police have taken away his licence indefinitely. He is fairly old though. So it seems police will take your licence away for falling asleep.Nonsense.
I think you'll probably find instances where people have driven when tired have caused more accidents and fatalities than talking on your phone, one memorable incident being the Great Heck rail disaster. Studies have shown driving when sufficiently tired is akin to driving when under the influence.
It's not punishable for obvious reason, but the risk to life is just as high if not higher.
Might as well just carry on driving then...The police have taken away his licence indefinitely.

As most people don't things like speeding, drink driving, dangerous driving etc etc because there scared of losing there licence.
So if you had no licence to lose what would stop you

Lucky I moved away, if that lycra clad wannabe PCSO did that to me I'd find a new use for his pump.....
There is no risk if it's mounted, don't worry about it just because some journalists have made bizarre extreme interpretations of it
You're no more at risk of prosecution from pressing the 'accept alternative route' button on the TomTom app than you were last week.
The penalty should be greater, in my opinion.
