Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Sir: I was reading a noticeboard in Hammersmith Road in London when I was run into by a woman who was driving a motorised wheelchair while engaged in conversation on her mobile phone (a conversation she continued while I was picking myself up from the ground).
If the Government plans to prevent use of mobile phones by road users, is there any chance they could extend it to other forms of transport?
