HC Deb 28 October 2002 vol 391 c652 10.19 pm
Shona MeIsaac (Cleethorpes)

I am honoured to present the petition of Sue Penney and 2,384 others concerning the dangerous, inappropriate use of mobile phones by motorists while driving, a practice that has led to loss of life in this country.

The petitioners therefore Request that the House of Commons pass legislation which will make it a criminal offence for a driver of any vehicle to use or operate a mobile phone while in control of that vehicle.

To lie upon the Table.
