Erm..thats the reason we have judges and lawyers who are supposed to argue common sense over pedantic views

Just a couple from todays papers

And precious few convictions for texting, using the rear view mirror for checking lipstick, changing the CD or drinking a coffee…..lack of conviction doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen
