If you are selling advanced aftermarket car radios, here are some facts that your customers may appreciate.
According to a new AT&T study, 61 percent admit to texting while driving and a third email while driving. Even worse, 28 percent admit to surfing the Internet while driving and 27 percent are on Facebook. Keep going? 14 percent are on Twitter.
The proper radio linked to a phone can help save the life of your customer or a member of his family.
Distracted driving is the cause of 10 percent of fatal car crashes in the U.S. It killed more than 3,330 people in the US in 2012.
Does your customer have a teenager at home? Texting while driving is the leading cause of death among teenagers. Should we say that again…it’s the leading cause of death, surpassing drinking and driving. More than 3,000 teens are killed each year in crashes caused by texting while driving.
Not interested in safety? It’s still worth getting a new radio. On average, those who live near cities have a 25.8 minute commute. That’s 10 hours a month, more than a full work day. If you live near New York, you have an average 40 minute commute. So why not have the latest in in-car entertainment as well as in-car safety?
