Cell Phones Warning
WARNING
Please comply with the legal regulations concerning the use of communication
equipment in vehicles in your country:
Use of any electrical devices such as cell phones, computers, portable radios, vehicle
navigation or other devices by the driver while the vehicle is moving is dangerous.
Dialing a number on a cell phone while driving also ties-up the driver's hands. Use of
these devices will cause the driver to be distracted and could lead to a serious accident.
If a passenger is unable to use the device, pull off the right-of-way to a safe area before
use. If use of a cell phone is necessary despite this warning, use a hands-free system
to at least leave the hands free to drive the vehicle. Never use a cell phone or other
electrical devices while the vehicle is moving and, instead, concentrate on the full-time
job of driving.
