Drivers eating at the wheel, swearing at police and typing two-handed at the wheel of an HGV were filmed by officers as part of a collaborative effort to deter and expose dangerous habits on our roads.

As part of Operation Tramline, National Highways provided five police forces with HGV cabs to patrol various sections of network including the A1, M1 and M18 during November and December.

Footage captured by South Yorkshire Police showed one driver typing away on a tablet or laptop computer while driving an HGV. A driver of a Ford Focus was then seen to use both hands to text on their mobile phone.
