New mobile phone law will only work if there are enough roads policing officers to enforce it
Last Friday it became illegal for motorists to touch their mobile phone for any reason while behind the wheel. This is a welcome change in the law which could save lives. But, as the Police Foundation’s recent report, The Future of Roads Policing, argues, legislation only works if there are sufficient roads policing officers to enforce it.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly: Miscommunication in UK Police Interviews and US Police Interrogations
This is the first comparative empirical study of miscommunication in US police interrogations and UK police interviews with suspects. The research was based on an extensive real-life data consisting of 100 transcripts. The main goal was to detect when and why miscommunication occurs in these two policing contexts, whether and how it gets resolved, and what the consequences of miscommunication may be. Miscommunication arises when speech participants draw opposing inferences from the same communicative exchange. Two main sources of miscommunication were identified: a) inferential ambiguity and b) linguistic complexity. The quantitative and qualitative analyses showed that, while the types of miscommunication are shared in the two jurisdictions, their frequencies and functions differ in some respects. Namely, deliberate miscommunication is more likely to be found in the US context while in the UK miscommunication is more likely to occur inadvertently. On the other hand, linguistic complexity gives rise to miscommunication more often in the UK than in US police communication. We discuss the results with respect to the two different approaches to questioning suspects in the two locales and translate our findings into practical applications for the training of law enforcement and language professionals worldwide.
