Stop Trailer and Luxury Bus Drivers From Recording Videos While Driving

I have noticed a worrying trend of trailer, luxury bus and spare drivers recording videos while their vehicles are in motion. These heavy vehicles already require full attention because of their blind spots, braking distance and wide turning radius. A moment of distraction can cause a fatal crash involving many passengers and other road users. Yet some drivers hold phones, film themselves, advertise their services or hail colleagues while driving. A properly installed dashcam is different. It can provide road footage and help investigators establish the cause of an accident. Handheld phone recordings and selfies behind the wheel, however, are a serious safety risk. Relevant authorities should enforce laws against this practice before more lives are lost.
