The handheld phone law update is out and includes changes to the penalties you will now receive if you’re unwise enough to use your phone at the wheel. 

This is a forward post from the DVSA

From 1 March 2017, the penalties for using a hand-held mobile phone while driving will increase to 6 points on your licence and a Ј200 fine.

THINK! has launched a new campaign encouraging drivers to put their phone in the glove compartment while driving to avoid temptation.

See THINK!’s website to find out more about the campaign.
