6 points for texting behind the wheel.

Ministers want to double the punishment for the illegal use of a mobile phone while driving, under new plans.
Motorists caught using a handheld phone while driving are currently given three penalty points and a minimum fine of £100.
But that could be increased to a six point penalty - meaning new drivers would lose their licence the first time they are caught using a handheld phone - and a minimum fine of £200.
Edmund King, AA president, said: "This is radical. One text and you're out. But if we are to change the attitudes of young drivers maybe it has to be that harsh.
"They are going to have to turn off their phones at the wheel otherwise they will be taken off the road."
