Drivers face new phone penalties

"The Department for Transport says 21% of drivers break the law. Motorists who use hand-held mobile phones while driving will now face tougher penalties.
The maximum fixed penalty fine has doubled to £60, and three points can be added to offenders' licences. "

I would suggest there should be provision for police to immediately confiscate the offender's phone. I would also suggest that any motorist seeing an offender at the wheel should continuously sound their horn while still near them.
