drugs. Choose a designated driveror call a cab.

erator pedal for a long period of
time. It may overheat the engine
or exhaust system and cause fire.

loose objects may drop on the
floor and it could interfere with
the operation of the foot pedals,
possibly causing an accident.
Keep all things in the vehicle
safely stored.
If you do not focus on driving, it may cause an accident. Be care-
ful when operating what may dis-
turb driving such as audio or
heater. It is the responsibility of
the driver to always drive safely.

ing. Refer to “Seat belts” in section
