    Disproportionate can mean too much or too little. So driving and paying too much care and attention compared to with too little care and attention. I stand by my last statement:



    However, I do concede that the correct statement is driving without due care and attention.
    Yes but you used it in the wrong context


    Getting bored with this now.

      The moral of this thread is: no posting without due care and attention.

          One last one.

          Mobile Telephones (Driving Offences)

          Lady Hermon: To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what plans he has to ban the use of mobile telephones while driving in Northern Ireland; and if he will make a statement on the introduction of spot fines for the use of such telephones by drivers. [142660]

          Mr. Spellar: Under the Motor Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1999 drivers are required by law to exercise proper control of their vehicle at all times. The Road Traffic (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 provides that a person who breaches these regulations commits an offence and is liable to a fine of up to level three on the standard scale (£1000). As such, drivers can already be prosecuted for driving with undue care and attention if they are using a mobile telephone while driving.

          With effect from 1 February 2004, 1 will be making it a specific offence to use a hand-held mobile phone when driving. The penalty will be a £30 fixed penalty—sometimes referred to as a "spot fine"—or a fine of up to £1,000 on conviction in court. It is also my intention to introduce by September 2005 legislation to increase the penalty by making it an endorsable offence attracting penalty points and a £60 fine.
          So Diver, I'm afraid you can't find much more official than Hansard, which can be submitted to a court as interpretation of the law and can influence a Judge when making his judgement.

          To clarify, you have the Northern Ireland Secretary stating in Parliament that:

          drivers can already be prosecuted for driving with undue care and attention if they are using a mobile telephone while driving.
          Bite me.

          On them! On them! They fail!

            Another statement given by an illiterate.
            All it proves is that there are a lot of uneducated Idiots in positions of authority.

            Check his illiterate and inaccurate statement against the actual laws, and you find that there is NO offence in the law book, Highway code or otherwise for driving with undue care and attention
            He misinterpreted, misquoted, misread, misrepresented, or misunderstood the law, the offence and the meaning of the terms he used.

            Show me a legally binding reference in the Law or legal (.gov) literature that that states that driving with undue care and attention is a prosecutable offence. Not Quotes, speeches or press releases from illiterates.

                It's in Hansard, it must be right.

                    Careful the dictionary cops don't pounce SAS. The thread can't possibly make you want to shoot yourself, it's an inanimate page of code.

                    They seem to frown upon any English bar their English.
