  • Did a really stupid thing. Stopped at lights and pulled my phone out of my top pocket to check the time. Pulled over and told it would be up to 6 points and £200 fine. As I’m on a CBT does that basically mean game over? I know I’m the idiot here.

  • Oh wow, that seems like incredibly heavy handed policing...

  • It would be a difficult one but how long was the phone in your hand for?

    The law is about ‘using’ the phone while operating a vehicle. If you already admitted to ‘using’ it you’re stuffed. But, if you didn’t and you could argue you were not using it but checking its presence, or some other excuse, that is Mr Loophole territory.

    You shouldn’t be using your phone while operating a vehicle.
