Answer 2

the answer is yes if you have an accident and it is proved your fault the first thing the police do is seize your phone for evidence.

it makes no difference if you were hands free or not

what they will say is that you lost your concentration thru the phone call and that means a possible jail term

Answer 3

Depends if the police think you are not in full control of the vehicle.

Answer 4

someone better tell Essex Police, you see them often driving, and using their mobile, which is in their hand- is it one rule for them, and one for us.

a few people have complained, but it seems nothing gets done about it
