“We have been shocked at what we have seen during the trial,” says Warwickshire Police inspector
A trial of road safety technology being deployed in the UK for the first time has led to hundreds of motorists being caught breaking traffic laws, with a senior roads policing officer saying he is “shocked” at the number of offences recorded.
The force says that more than 216 Notices of Intended Prosecution were issued as a result of the initiative. “Drivers who talk on phones, both hands-free and hand-held, are four times more likely to be in a crash resulting in injuries. “We have seen one driver with his phone to his ear and his other hand to his face so none on the steering wheel, and two separate drivers with no seatbelts on who were also using handheld phones.
