Ensuring that a cell phone is not a distraction while driving is crucial for road safety. Here are two ways to help minimize distractions:
- Use Hands-Free Devices:
- When making calls while driving, use hands-free devices such as Bluetooth earpieces, car speaker systems, or voice-activated features. This allows you to keep both hands on the wheel and maintain better focus on driving.
2. Enable Do Not Disturb Mode:
- Activate the "Do Not Disturb" mode or driving mode on your phone. This feature is designed to reduce notifications and distractions while driving. It can automatically silence calls and messages, send automated replies to incoming texts, and limit app notifications. Some phones even have features that can be activated when the device senses that you are in a moving vehicle.
