Mobile and Driving

Did you know that the using of mobile phone while driving is as dangerous as the driving in the state of intoxication? Many drivers, especially service workers or businessmen, got so used to having their cell phone near their ear while driving.

The explanation for this fact is that it's much harder to talk over mobile phone while driving than to talk with a person in the car. A person loses the directional sense, his attention is distracted and thus the risk of a car accident is very growing. Despite the fines many drivers still make calls or write messages while driving the car. It doesn't mean you have to turn off your handset when you drive. There are many devices that allow using mobile phones remotely such as Bluetooth garniture or special car hands-free system. However, in some countries it is prohibited at all. Big percentage of car accidents because of the mobile phone use proves the urgency of such law. This problem has also been actively reflected in social advertising. Furthermore, some progressive mobile operators are using the system of blocking the incoming calls while you are driving. When you choose such option, the system intercepts the incoming calls and informs the caller that you are driving at the moment.

The usage of mobile phone can be rather dangerous during the plane flights. The planes have ultra sensitive electronic control devices that can be easily disrupted by mobile radio signals. The principle of work of such signals is that the farther they are from the cellular antenna the more powerful they become. The passengers' neglect of the rules has lead to many plane crashes. Still the plane engineers are integrating the systems of call blocking into the plane.
