However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data rou- tinely acquired during a crash inves- tigation. To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

3 3 Safety features of your vehicle Important safety precautions

• ONLY use your mobile device when allowed by laws and when conditions permit safe use. NEVER text or email while driving. Most states have laws prohibiting drivers from texting. Some states and cities also prohibit drivers from using handheld phones. • NEVER let the use of a mobile device distract you from driving. You have a responsibility to your passengers and others on the road to always drive safely, with your hands on the wheel as well as your eyes and attention on the road.

Control your speed Excessive speed is a major factor in crash injuries and deaths. Generally, the higher the speed, the greater the risk, but serious injuries can also occur at lower speeds. Never drive faster than is safe for current con- ditions, regardless of the maximum speed posted.

Keep your vehicle in safe condition Having a tire blowout or a mechani- cal failure can be extremely hazard- ous. To reduce the possibility of such problems, check your tire pres- sures and condition frequently, and perform all regularly scheduled maintenance.
