In Queensland, get pinged using a mobile while driving and you’re up for about AUD $1,161 and 4 demerit points. Do it again within 12 months and you’ll cop another 4 demerits (that’s 8 total), which can send your licence on a little holiday without you. Learners and P1 drivers under 25 can’t use phones at all—not even hands-free; open licence holders may use hands-free/voice only, and never touch the device. Cameras and police are watching, so the “I was just moving it” line lands like a lead balloon. Best bet: mount it, leave it, or pull over.
