2. Distracted Driving ...its a crime…
Desperate Dan

3. Desperate Dan, drives his van
all around the town.
Deliveries are his game,
home by 5 is his aim,
or Dan’s girl will surely frown.

4. Dan likes a bet, so has to get
to the bookies on time each
day.
So woe-be-tide any poor driver
who gets in our Dan’s way.

5. Reads the Racing Post at the
lights,
eats his lunch on the go.
Texts his gal whilst at the wheel,
just one more drop to go…

6. Can’t delay, race starts at 3,
He’s had a hot tip from his mate!
Just one more bet, that’s all he
needs.
Dan the Man just can’t be late…

7. But the traffic’s bad and Dan’s uptight,
So straight through a ‘red’ he goes,
and doesn’t see the motorbike,
coming out of the side road.

8. Dan brakes hard, but it’s just no
good.
The biker doesn’t stand a chance
against Distracted Dan and his
van,
and a horse called Dan’s
Romance…

9. Distracted Driving …is the act of driving whilst
engaged in other activities such as;
 texting
 talking on the phone or to a passenger
 eating
 reading
 looking after children
 or anything else that takes the driver’s attention
away from the road.

10. CU80 Offence Code
‘Breach of requirements as to control of the
vehicle, mobile telephone etc.’
As from 20 December 2012
• ’Driver not being in position to have proper control’
• ‘Driver not being in position to have full view’
previously included in MS60 (miscellaneous offences) were
incorporated into offence code CU80, which had previously been
used to identify mobile telephone offences only.
All three offences are specified under section 41D of the Road
Traffic Act 1988 and incur the same level of penalty.

11. All distractions compromise
the safety of the driver,
passengers, bystanders and
those in other vehicles.

12. Does your health and
safety policy statement
cover
work-related road safety?

13. The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974
requires you to ensure, so far as is reasonably
practicable, the health and safety of all
employees while at work. You also have a
responsibility to ensure that others are not put at
risk by your work-related driving activities.
Promoting sound health and safety driving
practices and a good safety culture at work may
well spill over into private driving, which could
reduce the chances of staff being injured in a
crash outside work.
