New technology means that people can be detected using mobile phones while in a moving vehicle. At the moment they can't tell whether the driver or passenger are using the phone. This is just a matter of time though. They will always look for ways to shaft you for money.

Currently if someone is found to be using a mobile phone while driving will be given £60.00 fine and three points on their licence.
