Right elbow injured, the phone will have to be in her left hand next time.

I see so may on motorbikes riding one handed, using the other to operate a phone.... had one pop around a bend on my side very recently. 

They shouldn't need to be told that is dangerous. 

(Quite a contrast to UK where using your phone even while stationary, driving a car, can get you six points).
