Can’t Miss Insurance for Your College Student
A good part of your life is wrapped up in your cellular phone, and it’s common for people to spend hours using theirs each day. Unfortunately this means a good number of people being distracted with talking and texting while driving. The sometimes fatal results of this habit have prompted the U.S. Department of Transportation to create a regulation prohibiting drivers in commercial vehicles from using hand held phones.
If communication is key to your job, invest in a Bluetooth phone and a hands-free earpiece or headset. While speaking on an earpiece can also serve as a distraction, it lowers the attention factor by letting you use your hands for driving. Drivers who use partners in their business have an added advantage; they can assign the passenger as the designated caller and texter for all phone activities until the team can pull into a parking lot or other safe area.
