Greg Murphy: Road Safety advocate calls for stiffer penalties for distracted driving
Manage episode 414142548 series 2098280
There are calls for harsher punishments for repeat distracted driving.
New Ipsos research commissioned by AMI found 55% of drivers admit to driving distracted, with 21% admitting to driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol.
The top distractions were mobile phones, other drivers, other passengers, and daydreaming.
Road safety advocate Greg Murphy told Mike Hosking that fines have gone up for distracted driving, but it's still not enough to deter people.
He says it's one of those things where a stiff penalty would prevent them from doing it again, but we don't have that.
