Local Police Caravaca de la Cruz take place until next November 22 on-the possible misuse of mobile phones and handsfree devices.
The increase in this type of controls to be carried out both in the urban and in rural districts, is due to a road safety campaign launched in an agreement signed with the provincial traffic.
The local police sergeant, José Antonio Caro, recalled in this connection that "distractions while driving are a major cause of accidents.
In particular, the misuse of mobile phone four times likely to suffer an accident, a risk that is comparable to driving with excess alcohol in the blood. "
José Antonio Caro also referred to studies that indicate that after a minute and a half talking on the phone, even hands-free, the driver receives 40 percent of the signals and multiplies the reaction time.
