Dylan Thomsen: AA Road Safety spokesperson on police catching 51 drivers on their phones in two hours

from Holiday Breakfast · host Newstalk ZB

New Zealanders don't seem to be able to get off their phones, even when they're behind the wheel. A police operation in Central Wellington has caught 51 drivers using their mobiles in just a two-hour window. AA Road Safety spokesperson Dylan Thomsen says using phones while driving is a high-risk behaviour. He told Tim Dower it takes a lot more attention and focus than things like adjusting the radio, and can increase the risk of a crash by about four times.
