Just a few examples of drivers using phone last week which #CityRPU officers dealt with. Please stay off your phone whilst driving as it's a proven cause of collisions (and a proven cause of losing your licence!) #fatal4 45

#CityRPU are out this morning as the @PoliceChiefs national #Fatal4 campaign continues. We're targeting the drivers who cause serious risk to other road users. This car was found to be in dangerous condition, uninsured, and the driver was texting as he drove past patrol officers.

This one stopped by #GMPMotorcycleUnit due to not having any L plates. Not always an issue but on this occasion the officers suspicion was correct. Turned out the rider had completed a CBT, but way back in 2018 and never renewed it. Bike seized and rider reported. #fatal4

Did you know, that on average it takes one unit of alcohol 1 hour to dissipate from the body. So, if you were out drinking last night, you could easily be over the limit this morning. Coffee, maccies & water won’t help. Only time will. DONT drink drive. #RoadSafety #Fatal4

All the wrong records being broken yesterday as a driver blew 218 at the roadside in Shadwell, when officers came across him and his vehicle in a ditch on the A1066. Luckily no one was seriously injured but we know that isn't always the case. Don't drink and drive #Fatal4

More of the same #fatal4 phone use. Drives past static Police bike, phone in hand. Still in hand by the time the bike is alongside. Speaker phone is not hands free, if you still hold the thing. Another driver facing 6 points and a fine. #noexcuse #putitdown #opsbikes

These cars were seen to be racing and driving carelessly on the A11 last week. Both vehicles were stopped and the Mercedes driver failed a drug wipe ❌ The Audi driver was issued S59 warning 10 days ago, so the vehicle was also seized. A double whammy of #Fatal4 offences 🚨

Tickets were issued to these drivers in Norwich for using their mobile phone behind the wheel yesterday. Sadly a total of 16 drivers were caught doing exactly the same thing in just 90 minutes. Using your phone behind the wheel puts lives at risk - don't do it. #Fatal4
