Every day we hear messages about tragedies taking place on the road. Of course, the reasons for an accident may be a great set, but according to statistics about 45% of all accidents occur due to the fact that the driver was distracted by the phone. We decided to collect the main reasons why the phone should be used while moving as a navigator.
Think about passengers
Naturally, in the first few trips, we try not to take "on board" of loved ones and friends - you never know what. However, even an experienced driver can get into a situation where the life of his passengers will be in danger. Often this happens because of too much confidence in control over the traffic. Many drivers seem to be that in the previous few years they calmly talked behind the wheel, why not do it at the moment when someone sits near or behind - the last time nothing happened. No one knows when a non-standard situation happens, and how you respond to it. Always think about the life of your passengers in your hands until they leave the salon.
"Colleagues" by strip
Of course, you should not forget that you are on the strip, to put it mildly, not alone. Compliance with all the rules of movement is perfectly, but even in a traffic jam, it is important to monitor what is happening around instead of plugging the ears with headphones for listening to music - do not do it! If you really want to enjoy the new album of your favorite group or talk with a wired headset, turn on without the need to use additional funds that cut you from the outside world. You can simply not hear the signal and get into a very unpleasant situation. Do not immerse yourself in an audible vacuum.

Fine
Do not forget that the use of the phone without a special headset in itself is a serious offense. Otherwise, you can get a penalty of 1.5 thousand rubles. The traffic police officer can make a photo / video, which will be used in the future against you, is there one unimportant call of such consequences?
Remember your safety
And ultimately your safety is worth it. Even if you are "flying" on an empty highway, it is important to always be ready for surprises. Who knows who may appear on the road, especially dangerously relax on the night highway when the lighting is not in your favor. The maximum danger represents the road in the rain or a blizzard - here it is already for sure to postpone the phone to the first stop. Even the most important call is not worth the consequences to which the emergency situation can lead to your fault.
