All the revenue raised from tickets goes straight to the government coffers, the police don’t see a penny of it.
Still there are cops out there whose pet hate is mobile phone drivers, and they get the full force of the law 
Perhaps the police should have a crack down on petty crime. By all reports and results from other countries that have taken a zero tolerance approach to petty offences it does reduce serious offences as well.
But that would require a political force of will that is lacking in MPs, as long as they have their warm glass of milk, expenses and directorships they don’t give a toss.
Saw 1 better last night, a Ipad on the left leg and a book in the right and driving up the A13… Wouldnt care if it was stand still traffic…
The fine is small that is why people still risk it, if it was £1000 it would cut the use down a bit.
I’m investing in one of those flashy belt buckles. You know the ones where you can type a message and it scrolls across… only, I’m sticking it on my backpack!
Nothing to do with the fine, the chances of getting caught are remote, I see so many cars with defective lights, shocking tyres, and other defects but there are so few traffic officers to enforce the law now that you can get away with almost anything on the roads.
This has been caused in part by successive governments attitudes that you can police the roads by decriminalising offence and prosecuting by camera. Hence why cloning has gone through the roof.

I vote Kevsta for Prime Minister :laugh:
Mrs J wagging the sharp finger at em gets them quaking usually. Liveried vehicles showing phone numbers have been known to get a call too.
pass the job over to those traffic wardens on scooters, they’re ruthless enough to get people scared.
