Got a speeding ticket
and then a ticket for using my mobile whilst driving.

Other than that, nothing really. Apart from the time I got sent down for twenty years due to a bank job gone wrong.

You fucking retard.
It's not hard not to get points for speeding or using your phone. The fact that I still constantly drive past people in the 3rd lane of a 4 lane motorway while using their phones really makes me despair.

Any decent mobile comes with a built in handsfree function these days anyway

this^^^^
it's so hard to rest it on the dash or console and talk normally, much easier to hold it to your ear and drive into other cars.

Or buy a £2 dashboard mount from eBay

Or accept that realistically the call is probably not so important that it couldn't wait until you have stopped driving.

If you really need to make calls when drivin, buy a bluetooth earpiece.

I got caught just after the law came into effect.
Coppers had a real hard-on for mobile use after that. I hadn't realised it had come into effect and I drove straight past a policeman. Awareness fail.

Coppers mostly don't care overly much about speeding, I've found. I just had the misfortune to came round a corner to see a camera wagon.
