A mechanic has been banned from driving for a year after he was caught driving with his hands on his head. A mobile safety camera captured Richard Newton driving with no hands on the steering wheel on the A171 near Scaling Dam reservoir in North Yorkshire. In footage released by North Yorkshire Police, he is seen travelling at more than 60mph for around 25 seconds as cars pass him on the opposite side of the road. http://news.sky.com/story/1190994/ban-for-hands-on-head-driver-caught-on-camera
