Whitby man banned and fined for driving no hands
« on: 06 January, 2014, 09:54:53 pm »
Surprised  this has not been posted yet -

'Driver using no hands at 60mph banned for one year'
Richard Newton, caught by police cameras on A171, fined £685 and ordered to do community service for dangerous driving

Seems to be a fair cop - better not be caught riding no hands in N-Yorks :P

I had a client who used to drive his big fat Audi at speed while holding his Handy (pronounced Hendi) in one hand and dialling with the other while steering with his knee.

I used to work for someone who would drive, talk on the phone and roll a cig, all at the same time.  Unsurprisingly I only ever asked them for a lift once!
