Should the government increase penalties for distracted driving?

No

Only if an accidents but it require any action

Depends on previous criminal convictions

In certain cases, like if the driver was texting, or using a mobile. It should be legal however, to look at (glance at) or tap on Sat Nav.

Only where an incident or accident occurs and the distraction can be proven to be a contributory factor

Yes, but only penalties which are not carceral. Driving bans should be longer and more rigidly enforced

Yes, but only where this has resulted in dangerous driving

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.

Not everyone is the same, many people across the world use phones while driving. Keep penalties sort of similar

Yes, but penalties will have to be changed e.g time-out penalties, since financiel penalties arent enough of a deterent to some

Yes, but taking situations in context and the impact the actions actually had

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

No, they should just better enforce the laws that exist

I think the penalties are effective enough at the moment as they are however more awareness should be made about the exact fines and punishments you get for your specific actions
