Description

In this episode of Full Comment, Danielle Reece-Greenhalgh and Edward Grange dive into one of the most pervasive and quietly dangerous habits on our roads today: using mobile phones while driving. This episode unpacks the legal framework, the risks, and the social habits fuelling this offence.


Edward, a seasoned defence lawyer with a surprisingly hardline view on the issue, shares why he believes the law doesn't go far enough and he and Danielle debate whether the law should adapt to include harsher penalties particularly in sensitive locations like school zones.
