Man sentenced using a mobile phone whilst driving – South Oxfordshire

Following a Thames Valley Police investigation, a man has been convicted of using a handheld mobile phone whilst driving.

Arkadiusz Dybich, aged 45, of Tresham Road, Barking, London, was convicted at High Wycombe Magistrates’ Court on Monday (27/2).

He received a fine of £618 and his driving licence was endorsed with six points.

Dybich was stopped by police at 5pm on 2 July last year on the M40 in South Oxfordshire while using his phone.  

Investigating officer, PC Alastair Jarratt, of the Joint Operations Roads Policing unit, said: “Thames Valley Police take the offence of using a mobile phone whilst driving very seriously.

“It is unacceptable for people to be using a mobile phone whilst driving, using your phone whilst driving can have fatal consequences - It’s not worth the risk.”
