Mobile phone offences - speed of vehicles
R S Grant made this Official Information request to New Zealand Transport Agency
New Zealand Transport Agency did not have the information requested.
From: R S Grant
Dear New Zealand Transport Agency,
I refer to your public release of the "Mobile phone and seatbelt detection trial report - 24 July 2023". Do you have information regarding the speed the vehicles that were travelling at when an offence was detected? The consequences of distraction while using a mobile phone are clearly high for a driver travelling at speed, while they are essentially zero for a driver who is stationary in traffic. It would be useful to understand what proportion of the 2.4% of drivers committing a mobile phone offence were actually causing a danger as opposed to merely sitting in stationary traffic.
Yours faithfully,
R S Grant
