Law enforcement personnel from several agencies in the Dallas-Fort Worth area were interviewed in March 2000. They indicated that drivers' cellular telephone use is increasing, and they have witnessed some of the detrimental effects. Failure to obey traffic signs and signals or maintaining lane position was noted. Road rage was even indicated to be a result of driver-cellular telephone use. All those interviewed agreed that hands-free cellular telephone systems would be advantageous for drivers. 1, record 2, English, - hands%2Dfree%20cellular%20telephone

Nuevos teléfonos salen cada día con más accesorios o aplicaciones que hacen que tu teléfono móvil sea más bien un todo en uno. Pero, nunca debemos olvidar que el móvil es uno de los principales enemigos de un conductor responsable. [...] Debes saber que conducir y hablar por el móvil sin utilizar un sistema de manos libres se considera una infracción grave [...] Si no dispones de dispositivo manos libres, lo más recomendable es que apagues tu teléfono móvil. 3, record 2, Spanish, - tel%C3%A9fono%20celular%20a%20manos%20libres

Se denomina celular debido a las antenas repetidoras que conforman la red, cada una de las cuales es una célula, si bien existen redes telefónicas móviles satelitales. Su principal característica es su portabilidad, que permite comunicarse desde casi cualquier lugar. Aunque su principal función es la comunicación de voz, como el teléfono convencional, su rápido desarrollo ha incorporado otras funciones como son cámara fotográfica, agenda, acceso a Internet, reproducción de vídeo e incluso GPS y reproductor mp3. 6, record 3, Spanish, - tel%C3%A9fono%20celular
