A man spotted using two mobile phones while behind the wheel of his car has been banned from driving for 12 months.

Norwich magistrates heard David Secker, 34, of Rimington Road, Sprowston, near Norwich, was seen talking on one phone while holding the other as if texting.

Secker, who is unemployed, did not appear to be holding the steering wheel when he was spotted on the 70mph A47 at Blofield, near Norwich on 17 May.

He was found guilty in his absence last month and sentenced on Monday.

He was also fined £150 and his licence was endorsed with 14 penalty points.

He should have got a longer sentence.

Wait; he's unemployed.. yet he can afford a car and two mobile phones? And he was in such a hurry he had to talk on both of them while driving? Something very fishy there.

It should have been at least three years ban. A fine will paid over a number of years as he is on benefits.

Probably with his knees. I've been in a car with someone doing that, and I vowed never to travel with them again. :shock:

But you need to do it with the knees - afterall you cant eat the Kebab & drink your pint at the same time unless you use your kness - I mean it would be dangerous not to steer at all ;)

But where would the spliff go if hes holding a kebab and a pint, smoking whilst eating is a tricky thing to do. he might be distracted!

But to be fair to the guy he was using a voice controlled DVD player to watch the movie so as not to get to distracted
