Why You Should Ban All Cell Phone Use for Driving Staff

A word from CAA affiliate, Place Insurance Agency:

Distracted driving from smart phone use is becoming one of the leading causes of accidents in the U.S., and for the first time overall roadway deaths and injuries have started rising again despite regular advancements in car safety – a change that experts attribute to the scourge.

Did you know? – If one of your employees, while driving for you on the job, injures or kills someone while using a mobile phone, your organization could face serious liabilities.

This is especially true if they were either talking on the phone without a hands-free device or using texting or some other smart phone function while behind the wheel.

Don’t let your employees’ bad habits put you on the hook for a serious liability. Read the Place Insurance Agency newsletter for tips on what to do.
