You shouldn’t lose your car, but what other ‘options’ are they giving you? Driver Awareness Courses are usually only available for minor speeding infringements. If they are offering you one instead of 6 points then bite their hand off. 6 points is quite serious, as it should be, but if you can avoid the points you should. There is absolutely no excuse for handling a phone whilst driving, as you could kill someone. Most cars have Bluetooth or similar.
I believe they stopped mobile phone awareness courses in the in early 2022.
