Melbourne police! It was illegal to ride a bicycle, and 17 drivers were caught playing with mobile phones in a day.

That's tough.

Melbourne police have always been serious about driving a mobile phone.

But who would have thought they'd start riding bicycles to catch drivers driving mobile phones, and three police patrolling officers in northern Melbourne captured 17 in just one day!

This is too hard.

Police officers at the Fawkner police station began to crack down on dangerous driving by Sydney Rd and other major traffic routes while in Operation Roadwise!

Police captured 415 drivers using mobile phones during nearly a month of road safety operations in Victoria.

One of the drivers was caught again using his cell phone at the same intersection within 72 hours of his arrest.

According to Michelle Collier, a senior police officer involved in the operation:

"in the past, we all caught calling while driving, but now the drivers put their phones on their thighs. And looking down at the phone while driving, it's even less safe! "

"the advantage of cycling patrols is that we can see them at close range."

"most drivers are checking social circles, browsing Facebook and so on, and we've tried to educate them, but the number of drivers driving on mobile phones hasn't decreased, and it's too dangerous for them."

Finally, Xiao Wei reminds everyone that any driver who uses his mobile phone while driving will face a fine of 483 Australian dollars and be deducted by 4 points.

So don't take any more risks, whether for your own safety or for the safety of others, a carelessness can lead to tragedy.
