text: When driving you should only be focused on the road. Looking at your phone for even a second is potentially dangerous. If you need to look at your phone that badly, then you should pull over or wait until you are at a stop sign/light. If you need to check your phone on the road for whatever reason, do it in a manner that won't be potentially harmful to yourself or others. The best way to ensure you won't get distracted by your cell phone is to put it on do not disturb. Do not disturb stops all phone calls, messages, and notifications from all apps. It takes away some of the distractions and makes you less tempted to look at your cell phone when you should be focused on the road.
