Nowadays, it is a common occurence in our everyday lives to use a mobile phone. Sometimes, with our busy schedule, we have to resort to multi-tasking. That means we have to talk to the other end of the phone while we are running errands. This sometimes lead to unfortunate incidents.

This brings us to a BBC report regarding a new rule in London. For British motorists, it is time to abide by the rules and put their cellphones to rest, at least while driving. British motorists caught talking on a hand-held mobile phone or sending a text while driving could be jailed. Extreme cases could even lead to a charge of dangerous driving. That would bring forth a two-year maximum sentence and an unlimited fine.

Currently, motorists face an automatic fine and three points on their license under the lesser charge of careless driving. This is now known as the carefree days.
