So it’s a definite then!
I missed that part about the driving in the link because of a million adverts!
I got distracted by a YouTube how to make masks!
But.... it still does NOT state to wear a mask even if ALONE in the car.
That’s my query.

Or, are we going to hear stories of lone unmasked drivers getting fined now?

It doesn't mention how many people are in the car -
it just says -

Yes, that means even if you are driving a car.

And?

You're in lockdown, how often are you going out that this is such a problem?

If you're driving long distances, not just to the local shops and home, why?

Do you think you're just being a tad precious here champ?

What with your conservatives and melting down like snowflakes so easily over this issue?

Not if you're alone ..... but once you step out of the car you have to have it on.

No - read what he said below.

Should I wear a mask while driving?

Mr Andrews says err on the side of caution and wear a mask whenever possible.

Yes, that means even if you are driving a car.

"It's not like police will be pulling over every single vehicle or every single person to check you are wearing a mask but err on the side of caution," he says.

"Err on the side of doing more than less."

No ...... you don't have to.

But you have to have it before you get out of the car.

If you decide to wear it whilst driving .... your choice. Roll Eyes
