With winter approaching and snow beginning to settle, drivers face the prospect of long traffic jams, diversions, and delays on their journeys home. In such conditions, many may be tempted to reach for their mobile phones to call loved ones or check alternative routes.

Logistics UK has produced a briefing note highlighting the offences and penalties associated with drivers and employers who use mobile phones or other handheld devices while at the wheel.

The guidance underlines the risks of distraction and reinforces the legal consequences for non-compliance, particularly during the hazardous winter months.

The Briefing Note can be downloaded from here.
