It's very difficult to police and enforce offences such as tiredness, although various bodies do want this. The phone one is easy - it's quite obvious whether someone is using a mobile or not.

It's actually very easy. A competent driver doesnt drive into the back of stationary vehicles.
TBH the cause or reasons used to try and justify it are irrelevant. If the police deem that sort of person safer than one who may speed but has never had an accident in their life....well, that's a seriously fucked up logic.
In fact, most motoring related "offences" are seriously fucked up and have been created purely so they can issue easy fines.
