Why It Matters

Le Code de la route fait de l'usage du téléphone une infraction, mais peu de préfets sanctionnaient cet usage par une suspension.

Le simple fait de tenir son téléphone à la main, sans que cela n’entraîne un excès de vitesse ou toute autre infraction, pourra désormais entraîner une suspension administrative du permis. Le Code de la route en fait une infraction, mais dans en réalité, très peu de préfets sanctionnent cet usage en lui-même. L’instruction signée conjointement par Laurent Nuñez et Marie-Pierre Vedrenne envoyée le 29 septembre leur demande de généraliser le sanction de cette infraction en appliquant une durée de suspension décidée au cas par cas - dans les départements qui l’appliquent déjà, elle dure en moyenne quinze jours.

Marie-Pierre Vedrenne, ministre déléguée auprès de l’Intérieur, chargée de la Citoyenneté, indique que le dispositif ne concerne pas ici les seuls chauffards récidivistes, mais «monsieur et madame Tout-le-Monde». Dans les Landes, ou le dispositif est appliqué depuis novembre 2025, 300 permis ont été suspendus pendant les trois premiers mois et l’usage constaté du téléphone aurait ensuite reculé de 12%, selon le ministère. «Vous pouvez avoir sur la conscience une mort, tout ça parce que vous avez voulu envoyer un SMS», prévient-elle auprès du Figaro.

  • ?Quels départements appliqueront la mesure en premier ?
