6 Points for Mobile Phones, 1st March

According to the radio the police are putting out extra patrols in the Midlands today looking for people using a phone while driving.

Does the rise in fines make it a more serious offence than it was yesterday or just a more profitable offence for the authorities :unamused:

I’m not condoning the use of phones while driving but you have to wonder at the police response to the increased fine.
