$ Risk of accident
Operating an external audio source while the
vehicle is in motion will distract you. You may
not notice changing road and/or traffic con-
ditions, which may cause an accident.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(50 km/h), your vehicle is covering a dis-
tance of 44 feet (14 m) every second.
For your safety and the safety of others, pull
over to a safe location and stop before oper-
ating an external audio source.
