either way, i shouldn't have had the phone in my hand as it just gives them the opportunity. i should've known better especially being in a town centre at traffic lights with a police car behind me

Not got any but did do a speed awareness/driver rehabilitation course on Thursday after I got clocked by a Gatso whilst on a 1200mile week tour round the country for work-annoying thing was I got done by the camera round the corner from home maybe 100metres away!! Really pissed me off as the camera has been there for about 15 years too-such a prat.
Course was utter dog shit and a waste of 4 hours of my life-only thing I did learn was that old people should not be allowed in cars, ever. Of the 22 people on the course, 19 were aged over 65 and of those 8-10 were over 80. Average mileage for them was 2500 miles a year compared to my 30,000+. That's beside the point, what was worrying was that not one of them knew what the national speed limit was or the minimum safe distance between cars when travelling, most thought 1-2 car lengths was sufficient at any speed!! One woman couldn't walk without sticks and couldn't manage to carry a cup and saucer back to the table, a number had serious shakes, almost like Parkinson's and when they went through a couple of hazard perception videos and road sign awareness, most didn't had a clue even as to what the men at work sign meant, what a lanes merging sign was etc etc
