The UK’s largest police force has warned driving instructors that they could lose their licence if they are caught using their mobile phones on the road.
The Metropolitan Police made the move after IBTimes UK found that 198 supervising learner drivers were slapped with a fixed penalty notice (FPN) over the last four years.
The Freedom of Information request also uncovered that the Met had issued 87,785 notices to regular drivers caught using a mobile device between 2012 and 19 June 2015.
