This year the figures for deaths on Rutland roads has increased.
18 motorists were stopped
17 for not wearing a seatbelt and one for using a phone while driving.
Motorists caught using a mobile phone while driving currently face a fine of £100 and three penalty points – although the Government has announced plans to double this.
Driving without a seatbelt is also punishable by a £100 fine, but no points.
