There are many things that you are not allowed to do when you are driving, some of these are quite reasonable whereas some could very well be argued.

Drink Driving

This has to be the most ovious one as it has been around for many years. You will get an immediate fine for this and also have your driving license taken away from you on the scene so just don’t do it. If you have perhaps had a number of drinks it is just not worth the risk. Walk, catch public transport just do anything other than drive as you could put yourself, family, friends and strangers in risk of injury or death.

Using Mobile Phone

If you are thinking about using a mobile phone here in the UK you will have to use a hands free set or you may risk losing your license. Facebook, Tweeting and texting are just as dangerous which is why they are not allowed. Texting somebody is a big reason why people actually crash as you have to be looking at the screen when you are doing it. The really bad thing is that 1 in 10 of these people actually tweet whilst driving.

There are things that are still currently legal to do and they include eating, drinking non alcoholic beverages and smoking. Things like this also need to be stopped, I do not agree that it is fair but it could save lives if they are put into place so it could be worthwhile. if you were to just stop and pull over to have that sandwich or drink it isnt asking for much. Instead of taking it with you why not just stop at the burger joint for 10 mins.

If you are thinking about getting a car then why not look into getting Alfa Romeo Car contract hire or perhaps even Aston Martin Car Leasing. Lease purchase is an affordable way of getting a new car.
