YOUR PHONE AND YOUR CAR
It is now an offence to use a handheld mobile while driving. The DETR Working Environment Commission has issued advice concerning the use of mobiles in cars:

- Not attending to the road properly can result in prosecution for careless or even dangerous driving.
- If you must make a call, find a safe place and pull over.
