The penalty for using a mobile phone while driving in the Territory will soon be doubled from $250 to $500.
This penalty will also apply for visual display unit (VDU) offences, when a device has a screen capable of displaying an image such as a GPS.
According to the NTG, drivers are allowed to touch a phone to make a call if it is in a secure mounting to the vehicle but talking on your phone via hands free is still a distraction.
So what are they saying here. Can't use a tablet or such for navigation from August
