Another study also shows that 18 percent of drivers talking on their cell phones have recorded a slower reaction to stop lights. However, only 44 percent of Americans have installed their cell phones in their automobiles. Distracted driving is proven to be a major concern among Americans. Phone related car accidents can be avoided by having your phone installed on your car. Most auto detailing shops offer Bluetooth carkit integrations which enables the driver a hands free phone call experience.

Your car can be installed with one for less than $200. Your phone must have a Bluetooth feature before you can install this one in your car.

One of the popular applications of Bluetooth is the connection between a headset (hands free) and a mobile phone. Telecommunications provider Ericsson invented Bluetooth.

Typical Bluetooth carkit integrations include a receiver, a microphone, and a control pad.
