If as a driver you are not using your mobile phone whilst driving what have you got to worry or complain about? I drive a HGV for a living and being high up in the cab I am appalled by the number of idiots who are still texting and phoning whilst driving. It boils my piss. :x I have sat for countless hours in a classroom watching videos and photos from RTA's some of which are a consequence of mobile phone usage. There are some horrific images of loved ones who won't be returning home. I understand that people think this guy is a prize Bell end but the Police are using the same methods to catch drivers out. They have a plain Scania Artic unit that they drive up and down the motorways in equipped with cameras and ANPR. As I say If we drive within the law what is there to moan about. Just saying :thumbsup:

This one all over everyday, anything on the road should have a licence plate so that they can be reported for poor driving or riding standard.

The trouble is that there’s plenty of idiots that think it’s ok to use the phone whilst endangering other road users.

If they’d been as available in my cycling days I would definitely have used them.

If you have cycled lately you wouldn’t ask the question in that way.Around here most cycle paths are totally unsuitable and not maintained,that doesn’t excuse not using the cycle paths when they have been laid with proper planing.

One by me is 6 miles long and been down for less than 2 years, most cyclists use the road and ride 2 abreast - then wonder why they get people annoyed with them :headbang:
