The Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) (Amendment) Regulations 2018

Regulation 110 of the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986 (“the 1986 Regulations”) prohibits the use, while driving a motor vehicle, of hand-held mobile telephones or other hand-held devices, when performing an interactive communication function.

This instrument amends regulation 110 of the 1986 Regulations by inserting an additional exemption to provide that a person is not in contravention of that regulation where the hand-held mobile telephone or the hand-held device is being used to perform a remote control parking manoeuvre, in compliance with the requirements as set out in this instrument.
