Frequently Asked Questions
What if my phone was in a cradle?
Using a phone in an approved cradle for navigation is legal in all states for full licence holders. If the camera captured you touching a cradled phone, this is a strong appeal ground.
Can I request the camera images?
Yes. You are entitled to view the camera evidence. If the image is unclear or ambiguous, this can form the basis of your appeal.
