Good to Know
> 🚗 **Touching your phone while driving:** Even with a mount, you can't scroll, text, browse, or hold your phone while driving. Set navigation before you go, use voice commands for everything else. Police can still do you for distracted driving. **Charging while mounted:** Get a mount with built-in charging or one that leaves the charging port accessible. Trailing cables are annoying and can be dangerous - tuck them away neatly. **Different size phones:** If you upgrade phones regularly, get an adjustable mount that fits different sizes. Saves buying new mounts every time you change phone.
Frequently Asked Questions about Mobile phone mount installation in Sidmouth
Is it legal to have a phone holder in my car?
Yes - as long as it doesn't block your view and you don't touch your phone while driving. Sat nav use and hands-free calls are legal, but texting or browsing while driving is still illegal even with a holder.
What's the safest position for a phone mount?
Bottom corner of windscreen or on the dashboard - somewhere you can glance at it without taking eyes off the road for more than a second. It needs to be secure and not obstruct your view of the road, mirrors, or instruments.
Which type of mount is best?
Dashboard adhesive mounts are most secure and don't damage anything. Vent mounts are convenient but can break vents. Windscreen suction mounts work well but can mark the glass. I'll fit whichever you've got, positioned properly.
Will it stay put if I hit a pothole?
If fitted properly, yes. Cheap mounts or badly positioned ones come loose easily - especially on Devon's roads. Proper adhesive mounts or good vent clips should stay secure through normal driving.
Can you install hardwired charging mounts?
If it's a plug-in type (USB or 12V socket), yes I can position it properly. If you want one hardwired into your car's electrics, that needs a proper auto electrician - different job entirely.
