· While the car is in good shape, the kids are occupied in the back, the driver can focus on getting to the destination safely with the help of a windshield mount. Gone are the days of looking down at the phone and taking eyes off the road. The driver can turn on the GPS on their phone, put it in the mount and not have to look down for any reason – other than checking their speed. Know that Verizon offers a mount for nearly any mobile phone.
