TNC drivers # 1 big mistake

I take an Uber or a Lyft to work about 4 times a week and often get new drivers.

Many new drivers have one thing in common, they hold their cell phones while driving. Some like to place their phones on their knees or between their legs while they drive.

Holding cell phones while driving is against the law in some states, and drivers could get pulled over. 

The best solution is to have cell phones mounted and set so drivers can operated them, for the most part, hands free.

Some ride share companies send new drivers a windshield mounts, a suction cup that attaches to glass with universal type of holder. These never seem to work for me. 

What works best for me are the mounts that attach to an A/C vent and hold the device within arms reach from the steering wheel.

I got mine at Radio Shack but they are available at Fry's, Best Buy, Wall-mart and  Amazon.com.
