There are some states in the U.S. who have decriminalized first offense drunk driving meaning offenders will not even have a criminal misdemeanor on their record. Contrast that to the U.K. where you could get two years if one of their 4 million government cameras catches you talking on the telephone.
Using cell-phone in car = 2 years in prison!
Causing an accident while on cellphone = 14 years!
Motorists who use a hand-held mobile phone or fiddle with a satellite-navigation system while driving could be jailed for up to two years.
Prosecutors have said they could be charged with dangerous driving in a dramatically tougher approach to such offences.
Those caught fiddling with an MP3 music player or texting on a mobile at the wheel could also face the charge.
Prosecutions will be brought whenever it is judged that using the equipment posed a danger, such as forcing a car to swerve or causing a distracted motorist to jump a red light.
Those who kill while using a mobile phone will face 14 years behind bars under the charge of causing death by dangerous driving.
Director of Public Prosecutions Ken Macdonald said: "There is widespread public concern about the use of mobile phones and other hand-held electronic equipment while driving.
"We accept that in cases where there is clear evidence that danger has been caused by their use - such as texting while driving - then our policy should spell out that the starting point for charging will be dangerous driving."
Btw- is the latest Osama clip the newest fake?
