Two cases were found where parents used their mobile phones while driving their children to school. Additionally, 14 cars were found without functioning child safety features during the traffic checks.
It's worth noting that no new location was mentioned in the current paragraph, and no new cases of false license plates or uninsured vehicles were recorded. Furthermore, no new speeding offenses were recorded in the current paragraph.
