The match is expected to begin around the start of the evening rush hour, meaning some supporters may be on the road when the action starts. The report says that could encourage drivers to follow the opening stages from behind the wheel.
Listening to the radio or singing along to England songs is not identified as the problem. The danger begins when excitement changes how a driver operates the car.
A driver whose attention is affected could reportedly be considered to be driving without due care and attention. If the distraction contributes to dangerous driving, the potential penalty becomes more severe.
The focus on the match will be intense, particularly with Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham among the England players expected to attract the most attention. A decisive moment involving either star could prompt sudden celebrations inside vehicles.
That reaction may be harmless when supporters are parked safely, but it becomes a risk when it leads to dancing, gesturing or looking away from traffic. The report stresses that distraction is not limited to mobile-phone use; any lapse that affects concentration can create danger.
As England prepare to face DR Congo, the immediate challenge is clear: enjoy the match without allowing the result to dictate behaviour on the road. The next storyline will be whether Kane and Bellingham can inspire a memorable night while supporters keep their celebrations safely away from moving traffic.
