Can our drivers still use hand-held mobile phones whilst driving company vehicles?
The simple answer is no. No driver should use a hand-held mobile phone whilst a car is in motion or the car engine is turned on. If you require your drivers to use mobile phones whilst driving the company should fit hands-free devices in all company vehicles. Company drivers should then be instructed in how to operate them safely, and to only use a hands-free mobile phone whilst driving when it is safe to do so.
