    Default Texting while Driving

    It is now illegal to text while driving in the UK (I think that is extend to N. Ireland, but not 100% sure).

    I have lost count of how many times I have had to ask clients to stop texting while they are travelling over to me. Yes I know you are excited and yes I know you have a hard on, but please, please, please... wait until you get to me to talk to me and in all honesty if you are already on your way over it is a bit late to be making requests on what I should be wearing.

    Texting while driving is bloody selfish and dangerous. There are other people on the road too and pedestrians and they deserve better than to have someone bugger up their life because you want to text someone, when you should be concentrating on the road ahead of you.

    Stop it!

    There you go. Glad I got that off my chest. From now on if anyone texts me while driving over for a booking I will be charging them an extra £10 for each text received and no I will not be replying, as that makes me as bad as you! (if you do it that is).

    That's it. You can get back to drooling over porn now

    I cannot under stand why with modern technology that an inhibitor of sorts can be put into the phone that restricts its use whilst in the driving seat and the ignition engaged. We can spy on people from satellites in space to the extent of reading a number plates, so surely this is achievable. .

    For the benefit of non-nationals like Bucko.
    Republic of Ireland.
    Road Traffic Act 2006(restrictions on use of Mobile Phones) Regulations 2014.

    The regulations make it an offence to send or read a text message from a mobile phone while driving a mechanically propelled vehicle.
    These regulations apply to mobile phones which are not being held i. e., hands free.

    Legislation already in place makes it an offence to hold a mobile phone while driving.

    If convicted,
    1st offence :€1,000 fine max.
    2nd or subsequent offence:€2,000 fine max m
    3rd or subsequent offence in a 12 month period :€2,000 fine max and/or up to 3 months in prison.

    If they can't read there's no point in writing a post for them.
