Daily occurrence. Nothing out of the ordinary.
if they were paying attention to any stretch of motorway they’d have their 260 peple within 1 hour, not 24!
When I’m stopped in traffic I instantly get the urge to check my phone. I am full addict.
It feels every second driver is using one while driving, which is ridiculous of course. There should be much harsher punishment for phone use, more than exceeding speed limit by 5 – 10%
Imagine if they enforced this everyday
Need to hike the penalty points for clowns that do this to about 8.
It’s so prevalent
Anyone using their phone while driving should just lose their licence. Would immediately put a stop to this and reduce road deaths in one fell swoop.
Like drink driving, no excuse.
I walked past a line of cars stopped at the lights, 19 out of 20 cars had the driver checking their phone while stopped
Great. Keep it up. And do parents of kids with no seatbelts next.
They need to have harsher penalties, no text message nor doom scroll is worth someones safety. I cycle in Dublin city and I would say nearly every 3/4 cars someone is on the phone, driving or sitting in traffic. Between that and breaking red lights it is incredibly dangerous!
Size the phone and destroy them at the side of the road…
Sure if no one did anything wrong on the roads those lads’d be outa a job
I passed 3 in a row on their phones on the M11 yesterday
Saw a delivery driver watching a TV series on his phone that was placed in the dashboard blocking the guages, I just can’t understand the need to have a screen on your eyes at all times, do people not know podcasts and shit exist, I’m not massive on them but in the car they are great.
Would be great if they could also catch 260 robbers in a 24 hour period.
