TAKE ACTION TO STOP DISTRACTED DRIVING

Did you know Minnesota has a hands-free law in place? It is illegal for drivers to hold their device while driving. This means no calling, texting, emailing, browsing, or posting – including while stopped at a traffic light or stuck in traffic.

Here’s what you can do to help keep you and everyone safe on the road:

  • Turn off cell phones or place them out of reach to avoid the urge to dial/answer, read or send a text. If a passenger is present, ask them to handle calls/texts.
  • Set up your phone to send auto-replies stating you are unavailable to callers while you are driving.
  • If you are a passenger, speak up to stop the driver from becoming distracted.
  • Pre-program favorite radio stations and arrange music in an easy-to-access spot.
  • Adjust mirrors and AC/heat before traveling or ask a passenger to assist.
  • Designate a passenger to serve as a co-pilot to help with directions. If driving alone, map out destinations in advance, and pull over to study a map or program the GPS.
  • Try to avoid food/beverage (especially messy foods) and have drinks secured.

Rochester Community and Technical College is promoting this important lifesaving message on behalf of the Minnesota Department of Public Safety. We want our students to STAY SAFE!

TAKE ACTION TO STOP THE DISTRACTION!
