Cell phone use
The use of Mobile Communications Equipment has become increasingly important in the conduct of business and personal affairs. However, drivers must not compromise their own or others’ safety when using such equipment. Mobile Communications can enhance personal safety and security when appropriately used, particularly in emergency situations. Safety must be paramount when using mobile communications equipment to avoid negating these benefits.
Mobile Communication Equipment includes, but is not limited to, cellular phones, pagers, portable email devices, text messaging devices and portable two-way radios.
WARNING:
Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control, accident and injury.
Ford strongly recommends that you use extreme caution when using any device or feature
that may take your focus off the road. Your primary responsibility is the safe operation
of your vehicle.
We recommend against the use of any handheld device while driving and that you comply
with all applicable laws.
