One of my pet hates is anyone driving with a mobile phone in one hand.

Spotted today in Oxford black RRS BJ56... with phone in hand. Obviously couldn't afford the BTI.

Anyone want to own up Driver looked familar to me for some reason. TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone
Audi Q5 3.0 Tdi Sline wef 6/11/10

I'm with you on that one - there just isn't any reason these days why they should not be able to talk hands free

Pure lazyness ! 
" WITH MORE EXTRAS THAN A HOLLYWOOD EPIC "

Also a major pet hate of mine !!!

There’s been all sorts of hoo-hah here in Ireland with new legislation being passed recently banning the use of hand held mobiles while driving, with hefty fines & points on your licence.

But the Irish being the Irish, we don’t follow rules, or obey these pesky little laws. So many are still driving around on the phone…..grrrrrrrrrr

But today “plod” passed me in a patrol car and……………………..yep you guessed the driver was on his phone !!!!

So what hope is there

Maybe it was an S or SE that don't get the PTI as standard................. but it is also a pet hate of mine. I overtook a woman driving a RAV4 today and she was reading what appeared to be a newspaper as I went passed! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

RRS ownership for 1 yr, then D3 for 2 yrs. Then cut back to old bangers and working my way back up through two Peugeots in 6 months. Now got Saab 9-5 2.3t and enjoying the performance!

I find that some of the worst culprits are artic drivers, you also see a large proportion of the car drivers that do it don't wear a seat belt either

I am 'up North' VA

There was a TV programme recently where a lorry driver on the M3 ran into a queue of traffic whilst on the phone, he didn't even touch the brakes - not a pretty result

Seat belts is another hate but not as bad as phones.

End of the day the phone can kill some innocent person.

Where as the no seatbelt kills the person not wearing it........rough justice perhaps But very effective. TDV6 - gone
