Smart Practices While Driving
On the Road - Off the Phone
The primary responsibility of every driver is the safe operation of his or her vehicle.
Responsible drivers understand that no secondary task should be performed while
driving whether it be eating, drinking, talking to passengers, or talking on a mobile
phone - unless the driver has assessed the driving conditions and is confident that
the secondary task will not interfere with their primary responsibility. Do not engage
in any activity while driving a moving vehicle which may cause you to take your eyes
off the road or become so absorbed in the activity that your ability to concentrate on
the act of driving becomes impaired. Samsung is committed to promoting
responsible driving and giving drivers the tools they need to understand and address
distractions.
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices and their accessories in
the areas where you drive. Always obey them. The use of these devices may be
prohibited or restricted in certain areas. For example, only hands-free use may be
permitted in certain areas.
Before answering calls, consider your circumstances. Let the call go to voicemail
when driving conditions require. Remember, driving comes first, not the call!
If you consider a call necessary and appropriate, follow these tips:
Use a hands-free device;
•
Secure your phone within easy reach;

Place calls when you are not moving;
