  1. CONFIRMED: **6 points and £200 fine for using a mobile whilst driving from 1st March 2017** Advice to keep it simple: - Keep your mobile in a craddle or glove box - You cant touch the phone if its in a craddle, even if you stop at lights and even if your parked up with the engine on - If you want to use the sat nav on a mobile or plug the charger in. You must set it up before keys are in the ignition and dont touch it once engine is on - You cant scroll for tracks on your mobile while driving so have your playlist set up before entering the car - If you work for Uber or alike, you cant touch the phone when the engine is on. So you cant accept work while your on the move - Mobile can only be used if your parked up safely with engine off and keys out of ignition (Wireless keys - engine off) - Death by dangerous driving is now life imprisonment, no longer 14 years - You can use a mobile via built in-car technology like bluethooth. However, if you do have a collision, it can go against you. - You cant use headphones - You cant use loud speaker from your phone - You cant move your phone while the engine is on - If you call someone and they are driving, hang up - If you are a passenger and the driver is using a phone, take it off them and tell them off - If you are a employer and you force your staff to use a phone, It can result into imprisonment for you, large fines and your company being suspended from operation - Rules apply to PDAs also

  4. Top drivers, will have other work (and Uber on the side)- either their own private clients, or other, better paying firms, who look after their workforce! Those top drivers understand the market alright!
