A brief swipe on my phone... in standstill traffic.

Someone will be round to smash your back door in later

Would have been a fine on the spot I would have thought. That said picking up your phone in the car for anything now is likely to get you in trouble if caught, even using it in a cradle can be dodgy ground if the police think you are distracted.

Use mine all the time in a dash holder, they've never batted an eye.
As long as your sensible it's no different than reaching over to change the fan settings.

This is the most pertinent question to answer before we can truly judge how much of menace behind the wheel the OP is .

Who ever that cyclist is deserves a medal. Normally those headcam cyclists are just out to cause trouble and aggravate vehicles but what he is doing is a good deed!

bloody hell how old are you ..97 ?

In answer to your question - if its a van then they have better things to be doing (i.e going to smash a door down/ Transporting some equipment/norty boy/getting the pizza in etc etc)

You can relax


or can you ?.........

Unlikely, if they didn't pull you there and then.

Is this an extra service that Britain's finest now provide?

Well it's the Met, some of them are known to be a bit rapey.

 

[PlacidCasual]

Don’t worry the plod are only interested if you misgendered a rapist.

He's been around for a few years.

It's funny I'm sure we are all guilty of touching a phone or losing concentration at times. But when someone drives into you while stationary at a roundabout from the rear and writes your van off it becomes a different feeling.
This guy "Cycling Mikey" posts a lot. Gets lots of comments like "where can I find this man" and "I need to teach him a lesson" Shame really.

6 points oof, that's painful.

I'm on two minds on this one. I hate that people text and drive and doom scroll through insta but I'm not really a fan of people going out of their way to find and report them.

I don't think it is dodgy grounds anymore. I believe there was a ruling earlier in the year that made interacting with any electronic device (including ones inbuilt into the car) an offense that a person could be prosecuted on, if it is belived to have distracted them while driving.

sounds like you have done it more than once

I bet you'd be happy if the police went out of their way to find them.
If so what's the difference other than a manpower issue?

Just put your phone where it's not a temptation. The amount of people I see on their phones going into work (if I get the bus in) is staggering. I literally could see a guy checking his Instagram as he was coming up to a roundabout.

 

[Yaayuh!]

Those that are not paying attention at traffic lights, with their heads buried in their phones.

Problem is the introduction of carplay etc plus putting controls into the touch screen because it is cheaper than buttons. A simple turn dial knob with buttons is far less distracting and easier to use while driving.
