High-Quality Audio Gear for Safer and Smarter Summer Road Trips!
Memorial Day (May 30), kicks off the summer driving season. AAA says 35% of Americans plan to take vacations farther than 50 miles away from home (this year). That means lots on time in the car, handling unfamiliar roads and, managing the kids, while trying to relax and enjoy the ride.
Talking or texting on the phone while driving is illegal in many states. But there’s often the need – or desire – to stay connected via mobile phones and social media. Yet the average car is 11.5 years – so it lacks high-tech, expensive built-ins such as hands-free navigation, communications and entertainment systems.
Lauren Fix, The Car Coach, is here with some tips on how to make road-trips more enjoyable and safer this driving season. Lauren Fix discusses:
- The hot devices and apps people are using while driving (Navigational systems, Smart-phones, WAZE, hands-free clamps, tablets and video players)
- Behavior that puts people at risk, especially among younger drivers (talking/texting, using hands to operate radios and other devices, putting on makeup, reading!)
- Statistics on car crashes, deaths and injuries from distracted-driving
- The benefits of a truly, hands-free device for handling communications, entertainment and navigational needs (Portable high quality audio system that can be used in and outside the car)
