Making Up is Dumb to Do


Donna Maddock, 22 and pictured at right, has been fined £200 plus £55 costs after pleading guilty to careless driving. She also lost 6 points of her liscense.

All for putting on make-up as she drove.

Said aspokeswoman for North Wales Police: "You need to be in control at all times and Miss Maddock's actions beggars belief."

Roger Vincent, a spokesman for the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents, branded Ms Maddock "irresponsible".

"It is frightening to think what could have happened as she was driving along without her hands on the wheel particularly as this is such an accident blackspot."
