Mobile phone detectors are to be used by police to find drivers using devices at the wheel.

The Thames Valley and Hampshire forces are rolling out the technology to show when motorists are using their phones.

A sign will flash at the driver telling them to stop using their mobile - but the detectors cannot tell if it is a driver or passenger using the phone.

The detector picks up 2G, 3G and 4G signals and will therefore flash to alert people in cars who are using phones to call, text or data.

If people are using a Bluetooth hands-free device, the detector will recognise this and not flash.

If it stops just one death, it has to be a good thing.


A local texting driver wrapped her bumper around a power pole. The 7kv line broke and dropped on her car.Â* She had to sit there in her car for 30 minutes while power company turned the power turned off.Â* Unfortunately, the airbag saved her life.
