activities divert your attention away from

your area.
To avoid distracted driving, keep your eyes
on the road, keep your hands on the

driving.

device prior to driving.

retrieve items that have fallen to the
floor.

information on using that system and the

mistakes. Anticipate what they may do
and be ready.

you and the driver in front of you.
