Mobile Phone and Driving.

In the process of driving the driver should not be distracted by anything that would distract him even for a second.

Let alone start a conversation on a cell phone, especially by holding it in your hand.

The traffic code prohibits the use of a mobile phone inside the vehicle.

Allowed only with the use of wireless blue tooth, or in a fixed part of the vehicle with open hearing.

The use of the phone, in addition to distracting the driver when he answers or ends the call, if he is charged and negatively what they will be told, you detune from the road and having focused on what he hears, he loses contact on the road and observes neither the signage nor the distances from other moving vehicles.

Studies have also shown that it is 4 times easier for mobile phone users to get involved in an accident.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

  • It is best if the road allows us to stop safely at a point where we do not disturb and to complete the phone call.
  • Before starting the vehicle must be connected to the handsfree or the corresponding Bluetooth.
  • If it is necessary to answer, the dialogue should be very fast and comprehensive.
  • The person calling us must be informed that we drove.
  • It is forbidden to write a message because only by chance will we avoid the accident.
  • Because the reaction time increases a lot, it would be good to wait for the phone to finish our route, and not to wait for us from home without leaving.

It is important to know that the radiation is quite high when using the mobile phone inside the vehicle, and there should be an external antenna as well as the windows should be slightly open.
