You bad Bournemouth Bunch!

Actually not sure what I make of this - some of the driving is appalling but having some journo snapping away and publishing doesn't sit quite right with me.

Haha wow, they must be having a slow news month. Interesting to see if the police act on these

What is wrong with people?! Is it really worth risking an accident or your licence? Most of those photos were of professional drivers, or tradesmen in vans. Why not have handsfree if you spend so much time in your van?

Rumour has it the coach driver has been suspended - but I don't know how accurate that is.

we've all done this, and worse no doubt, but do we now have to look out for paparazzi as well as the Old Bill?

Agreed. Its nothing more than an act of vandalism.

Agree - no movement in some of those pictures, & no context: I've been stuck on the road, & yes, I'm afraid I may have rung home to explain why I was late...but not whilst the car was moving.

........and look, this driver had his left hand off the steering wheel while he changed gear, i'm sure sooner or later all vehicles will be automatic because its just to dangerous to change gear

There is also one there where a driver is blinking - imagine the out roar if one of them was to blink as they were changing gear! Carnage.
