4x4 and phones

--- Quote from: "att" ---As a biker and living in the SE of England, I can wholeheartedly concur with these findings......Most peeps in 4X4`s do use the phone whilst driving, followed by truck drivers......Mmmmm, I see a trend here.
I would just like to add, that I use my phone only when stationary.......Having had plenty of near misses whilst riding with folks on mobile phones....It really is the only way.
I have had plenty more probs with these imbeciles than I have had with drink drivers.
If you use a mobile whilst driving, you should be banned.....Treat it the same as drink driving.

Well I am a Land rover owner/driver.. I drive HGV's for a living, and also ride a bandit 600..as for using a phone I DONT....IF I HAVE TO ANSWER IT I STOP!!!!
I resent the fact that you assume all hgv drivers and 4x4 drivers are total pratts!!!!!

No, not pratts, merely inconsiderate to other road users.

Bezza, IGNOR THIS IDIOT!!!
Budgie:
Up here in Scotland it's an offence to use a mobile while driving along the lines of not wearing your seatbelt. So if someone has done a study and the results show that there are people still using their mobiles while driving then surly the questions should be:
"Why are more people not beinging charged?" and "Why are they getting away with it so often?" :?

So come on att, give us your evidence. If what you say is true, you will have the statistics at hand (surely an intelligent person wouldn't make such an allegation against "MOST" 4x4 drivers without evidence....would they??)
