Motorists face new penalties for breaking the law by using a hand-held mobile phone while driving from February 27th 2007. From this date, the fixed penalty will for the first time include the award of three penalty points on driving licences as well as doubling the fine to £60. In addition, employers face prosecution if they cause or permit their employees to take or make phone calls or text messages whilst driving. In 2004 nearly 74,000 fixed penalty notices were issued for illegal use of a mobile phone while driving. At Castle Vehicle Leasing, we are committed to ensuring that our customers are kept informed of any changes that may affect your drivers in company vehicles. If you have not introduced a policy covering the use of mobile phones whilst on company business, please contact us as we are able to offer legal, hands-free telephone solutions. Please note that once this information becomes more widely publicised it is likely that mobile phone installations will be extremely booked up, so don't get caught out. Since hearing the news Castle Vehicle Leasing have put in place a priority installation scheme for our subscribers. For details contact Chris, John or Julie on 01869 253744. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Yours sincerely, Castle Vehicle Leasing t: 01869 253744 | f: 01869 253755 | www.castleleasing.co.uk |
