Driving Whilst Using a Mobile Phone

This offence is endorsable with 3 penalty points and the court now has the power to disqualify the driver on a discretionary basis. Usage of a handheld device whilst driving, specifically prohibited under the legislation, encompasses making or receiving a call, sending or receiving a text and surfing the net etc. The device itself must be actually held or held at some point during the course of performing an interactive function.  If you have received a fixed penalty notice or Court citation for an offence relating to use of a mobile phone, seek legal advice.
