Leverage the “Smarter” Phone

Texting while driving is one of the most dangerous and prominent distractions in a commercial vehicle. According to the National Safety Council (NSC), using a cellphone while driving leads to 1.6 million car accidents per year. More than 40 states have addressed the dangers of mobile device usage by making texting while driving illegal. Ensuring employees are following the law while also guaranteeing the company is in compliance with OSHA standards is vital.
