The penalty is currently 6 points + a fine, which seems fairly proportionate. Would be open to it if there were evidence it would improve road safety.

Payment should be based on income. I.e higher pay pays more. A Ritchie person won't be detered by a small fine. However a small fine could effect someone's lively hood
@9NN3R6Q1wk1W
Not everyone is the same, many people across the world use phones while driving. Keep penalties sort of similar
@9MV4FB53wks3W
Yes, but taking situations in context and the impact the actions actually had
@9MT73KC3wks3W
Yes, but only where this has resulted in dangerous driving
@9MV6V5Q3wks3W
No, they should just better enforce the laws that exist
