The UK's Highway Code imposes a six-point penalty and fine for using a mobile phone at drive-throughs or in stationary traffic.

Using a mobile phone at drive-throughs like McDonald's or KFC can lead to a six-point penalty and a fine, according to the UK's Highway Code. This restriction applies to all scenarios where the engine is running, including at traffic lights, in stationary traffic, or while supervising a learner driver. The law extends to offline or flight mode devices as well. However, drivers can use hands-free devices, such as sat-navs, if they are secured.
