such as a quick look at the sat nav, neglecting to signal, or any short-lived distraction – might result in prosecution and a driving disqualification.
I hate people that don’t indicate. Especially on roundabouts because now I have to wait for them to decide what they’re doing. How hard is it to flick a switch?

They are, what has changed is the sentences you’re likely to get for doing them (and causing an accident or being caught by the police).
Instead of points and/or a fine, you’re likely to get a temporary driving ban instead.
Interestingly it seems they’ll punish commercial vehicle drivers like this as well which could easily result in losing your job if it’s required for work.
