So they’re now just discriminating against people who can’t afford newer cars

No, the Department for Transport has not announced a ban on using phone-based GPS in cars in 2026. However, the UK law already prohibits the use of hand-held mobile phones while driving, including using them as a sat nav. The law also applies to stationary vehicles, such as those stopped at traffic lights or queuing in traffic. While hands-free use is permitted if the device is secured in a cradle, drivers are still responsible for ensuring their driving remains safe and controlled. The government is focused on enabling the rollout of self-driving vehicles, with legislation in place to allow their use as soon as 2026.

or is it because mobile phone maps tells you where speed cameras are?

Most likely another way to get people to buy ‘new cars’. Did a report on mobile camera hotspots using the 2024 Department For Transport collisions reports for my dissertation and the highest factor for collisions is road junctions, speed and weather, distractions came as one of the last factors. So definitely a way to get people to buy their ‘electric cars’ to further support their ban on petrol cars 🤣🤣

Apple CarPlay uses GPS from your phone to function…

Waze and google maps have built in notifications of speed cameras and mobile police units, probably banning them because it reduces the amount of people the find speeding

No, Google Maps will not be made illegal to use in cars in the UK in 2026. The current UK law prohibits holding and using a mobile phone, including navigation apps like Google Maps, while driving. However, using a phone in a cradle or via integrated car systems is permitted,

The law states if your phone in a holder it is no longer classed as a “mobile” device and if your found using it while in the cradle it’s classed as not in proper controller of motor vehicle. (Phone gps is fine IF it’s in a holder.

It would be okay if the built in sat/nav maps was up to date!

It's a terrible idea. I drive a car from the 60's and rely on my phone for gps. What difference does it make if i have my phone in a phone holder or use a built in screen? It makes no sense to me.
