New mobile phone laws while driving will come into force from Friday 25 March 2022, the Department for Transport (DfT), United Kingdom has confirmed.

  • Any use of a hand held mobile phone while driving will be illegal.
  • Anyone caught using their mobile phone while driving will face a £200 fine and six points on their licence.
  • The new law follows public consultation which found that 81% of people supported this move to make the roads safer.

Drivers will still be able to continue using a device ‘hands-free’ while driving, such as a sat-nav, if it’s secured in a cradle. They must, however, always take responsibility for their driving and can be charged with an offence if the police find them not to be in proper control of their vehicle.
