Abstract
On the 1 December 2003 a new law came into effect banning the use of hand held mobile telephones whilst driving. This article looks at the background to this new law, considers whether business drivers should be provided with hands free telephones and offers assistance for organisations that wish to develop a safe driving policy for their staff.
