HARRY Styles risked a £200 fine and getting six penalty points on his license by using his phone while driving this weekend.
The One Direction heartthrob was pictured checking his phone while driving with a mystery blonde in North London.
Harry, 23, who recently released his first solo track, was seen using his phone while behind the wheel of his luxury Audi.
