Driving While Using A Mobile Phone

We offer professional, friendly legal advice and representation in courts throughout Scotland.

Over 30 years experience as Road Traffic Defence Lawyers

Driving while using a mobile phone is a commonly charged road traffic offence.

Acceptance of a fixed penalty ticket for driving on the phone in Scotland amounts to an admission of guilt. The fixed penalty ticket results in a financial penalty and six penalty points. New drivers are, therefore, likely to face revocation of their licence if caught using their phone.
However, it is possible to challenge a fixed penalty in court. McGovern Reid has an excellent track record in mobile phone offences and we regularly challenge police officers in court when they accuse drivers of using their mobile phone.
