Speeding L-plater caught sending SMS
AAP September 4, 2009
A learner driver has been caught texting a friend and not wearing a seat belt as her mother sat in the passenger seat sipping coffee.
The 16-year-old girl was pulled over in Ryrie Street, Geelong about 2pm on Thursday afternoon.
Police say they spotted her "furiously texting on her mobile phone while trying to drive".
Her mother, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, was reportedly drinking coffee and looking out the window.
When police asked her what level of supervision she was providing her daughter, she allegedly replied, "How can I do anything? I have a terrible headache."
The 16-year-old girl was fined $227 and was given three demerit points.
