Yep. I agree.

It’s fine when it’s wireless or at least hands-off but text-driving is a big no-no. By all means call your brethren but you can’t be touching the mobile while you’re driving.

I don’t really agree with these sneaky tactics the police use but in this instance I am kinda for it. If they’re catching people who are texting or on the phone whilst the car is moving then I think it’s valid but if they’re just trying to get people who are sitting in standstill traffic it’s really unfair.

It depends how much more room for any other offences they still have.

I think if you’re on the phone whilst driving then you deserve to be prosecuted for it. Don’t know why this is even a discussion.

I agree drivers on phones should be punished. I disagree with these tactics by the police. It's not policing.

The elites don't want the underclass driving, they've had orders from their masters. We know this with their ridiculous, Inhumane net zero nonsense. That's why there's permanent road works. That's why there's Ulez. That's why they do this.

I'm not saying reckless drivers should be allowed to break the law. But for a conspiracy theorist like me, I know there's an agenda behind it.

I bet they're not on the buses where the rich, drunken elites live.

They'll only be targeting the working class people, the ones who are doing the actual work to keep the country running.

And I'm all for cars going. I've always been for bringing the horse and cart back.

Tbf some laws were made to be broken.

But admittedly not potential driving accidents, people obviously shouldn't be using their Phone whilst driving.
