Is the use of two-way radios included in the new mobile phone legislation?
The use of 2-way radio equipment (unless the device can also be used as a phone) when driving is not included in the new offence, but remember there is still a risk of distraction and prosecution under other powers. If a device is a dual or multi purpose device that can be used both as a mobile phone and a 2-way radio, the use of the device while driving or supervising a provisional licence holder is prohibited. Use is prohibited whether the device is being used as a 2-way radio or as a mobile phone.
