for operating the vehicle in a safe manner. Vehicle operators must maintain full surveillence of
all pertinent driving, boating or flying conditions at all times. An incident or collision resulting in
damage to property, personal injury or death could occur if the operator of a GPS-equipped vehicle
fails to pay attention to travel conditions and vehicle operation while the vehicle is in motion.
