Museum as we were directly opposite it. We were crossing the road, when I got out my
phone. I wasn’t really thinking. I wanted to check my messages. Anyway, almost immediately

up, I saw a police officer. We looked at each other for a few seconds and then I noticed she
was pointing at my phone! I had no idea, but it’s actually illegal to look at your mobile phone

When my dad got a job in Sydney, Australia, we moved there from the UK for two years. We
were living close to the centre and Dad started going to work by bike. He didn’t even have
one back in the UK! We knew that bike helmets are compulsory in Australia. And Dad always
wore one. So when the police stopped him and some other cyclists at a traffic light one
morning, he was feeling relaxed. But can you believe this? While the officers were checking
the bikes, they noticed that several of them didn’t have bells – including Dad’s. And all bikes
must have them in the city. They were each fined $106 – about £60! That feels so unfair.
