Grass him up to who though, one of his own.

If rumours are right they log the vechicles out so they know is using them (PMSL  ::)  -  I really believe that)

First time I vere saw this with a coppe, but the amount of times I see folk on the phone driving down this area peckham, dulwich etc, is just unbeleivable, and in very expensive cars aswell, where you think they would have hansfree at least :-X......personally never answer the phone whilst driving, don't have handfree, and pull over if I do answer the phone or need to make a call.

A mate of mine is a copper (BOOO, HISSSSSS), and he got 'banned' from driving the cop cars for a month after scratching the hubcaps on an astra. The Met check cars in and out, mark all damage and the driver, so i'd report it! (well, next time, when you get the reg, that is).

I got the same kind of look from the young copper sat next to me at the lights. He was texting, and looked over towards me, I shook my head and slapped my wrists.

Sure it was a mobile phone and not an Airwave handset??  Tetra sets have both radio functionality as well as mobile phone/text capability....

If he had it to his ear, he's still in the wrong surely ::)

Legally, its classed as a radio and thus exempt from the mobby phone legislation.

Morally, yes, still in the wrong.....   ::)

never commented on the smoking/driving thing.  All that was said was the 'device' is legally a radio, not a mobile phone.

Likewise, other emergency service drivers using a radio are exempt, as are taxi drivers, gritter drivers, etc etc....  

But if an accident happens as a result of using it, different story....   ;)

i was getting at the fact that i thought in generally they were getting more keen on anything in your hand that could be considered a distraction such as food, cigarette or walkie talkie/phone
