Episode Details

Smartwatches are now on the radar of road safety officials — and for good reason. With laws already cracking down on phone use while driving, the RAC warns that checking your smartwatch for notifications could land you in trouble, even if the rules aren’t crystal clear yet. As these devices become more common — especially among younger drivers — the risk of distraction is rising. Officials stress that staying focused on the road is non-negotiable, and distracted driving could lead to fines, points, or even charges for careless driving. The Department for Transport is reviewing the issue and may soon clarify the legal boundaries. For now? Leave your smartwatch alone while driving — your safety and your license depend on it.
