\335Warning
\225 Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control
that may lead to an accident, severe bodily injury, or death.

operation of the vehicle, and the use of any vehicle systems,
including the touch screen and steering wheel controls, which
take the driver's eyes, attention, and focus away from the safe
operation of the vehicle, or which are not permissible by law,
should never be used during the operation of the vehicle.
\225 Pull over the vehicle at a safe place before connecting
