What People Think Of The "Zap Your Phone, Not Our Children" Sticker:-
 

" It infuriates me that people are still disobeying the law and talking on the phone while driving, risking death to themselves and others.

Worse still, I see cyclists doing this as well. The worst offender was a mother on a bike with a baby-carrier, barely steering with one hand and intently talking on her mobile. As a parent, I was utterly disgusted.

“Great Campaign, Arvind!

" People should shut up whilst they are driving"

 

"I ride a scooter around London , where as it is the roads are dangerous at the best of times. But recently on a couple of occasions, I have almost been killed by drivers trying to steer their car whilst talking on their mobile phone. Their focus was elsewhere and they were simply not aware of me and my scooter.

Talking on your mobile whilst driving is simply not a joke anymore. This car sticker idea is a great initiative and I will be recommending it to all my friends and clients. Thank you Arvind”

Tania Psathas, Wimbledon, London

(Londoner who daily rides her scooter around London)

"Having driven a vast number of miles over the last few years, it's clear how people's attention levels fall when they are chatting on a mobile handset while driving.

It's clearly very dangerous to do so and anything that will help get that message across can only be positive."
