Note: Engaging in extended searching
for specific audio stations or songs by
using buttons and knobs — or giving
extended attention to entertainment tasks
— can lead you to look away from the
road frequently or longer than usual.
Looking away from the road for pro-
longed periods may cause you to miss
seeing things on the road that you need
to see. Be sure to keep your eyes on the
road and mind on the drive — and avoid
engaging in extended searching for spe-
cific items while driving.
