A recent report has disclosed that eight London boroughs rank highest in the UK for drivers caught using their mobile phones, with Ilford leading at one in every 182 drivers.
The data highlights a significant rise in mobile phone offences related to driving, with 39,085 total offences reported in 2023, compared to 6,431 in 2020.
This alarming increase translates to an average of 107 mobile phone-related offences taking place daily across the UK, a serious concern for road safety.
The statistics emphasize the longstanding nature of this illegal activity, as using a handheld mobile device while driving has been prohibited since 2003.
