No seatbelts.
Fiddling with phones and other crap.
Not looking where they're going.
Just wondering if they had a UK depart, would they be up for prosecution, or are they exempt if the road is closed?
Probably exempt on closed roads.

Or does watching the race on your phone/phablet not count as mobile use
As you well know in the UK you can run over and kill a cyclist and avoid any real punishment (numerous instances as made apparent by threads on here) so it seems like a silly question really!
