I once saw a bloke in a van who had his phone in his left hand, holding it against his right ear as well as holding a fag out the window with his other hand. He was steering with his elbows!

using a phone is nothing,

i have heard stories before, but rarely see it cos i havent had to do much commuting before.

but I have seen a woman driving along applying make up  :shocked: , lippy, blusher and then EYE LINER, all whilst on the move.

bad enough you might think,

all this was done with a ciggy in the other hand  :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:

I keep calling her on her mobile whilst she is driving to tell her that she could have at least left me a ciggy as she never leaves me one  :grin: :grin:

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

On the rare occasion I use the phone while driving. On this thing called a handsfree kit. For some reason concentration on the road is improved vastly with one. Even then I dont particularly like using it as it is a distraction.

Everything's a distraction when you're driving, changing the radio station, talking to your passengers, turning round to tell the kids to put their bloody seatbelt on, billboards, weird looking people walking by.

Honestly if you can't handle a collective of tasks don't drive.

The penality if caught is not enough of a deterrent. A higher fixed penalty and a ban would be better.
