Nectar Accessories Improves Driving Safety by Keeping Eyes on the Road
Last Updated 9/30/2009

Washington DC, Sept. 30, 2009 – Nectar Accessories is attending today's US Department of Transportation’s Distracted Driving Summit to introduce Nectar’s Bluetooth headset holders as a best practice for improving safety while driving and using electronic devices. 

Nectar Accessories has been featured on Good Morning America, PC World and SkyMall.  The award-winning solutions are included in the Wireless Association “Hot for the Holidays” product showcase, which celebrates the “hottest wireless consumer electronic products and applications of 2009.”

“Although Bluetooth headsets may decrease risk of crashing while using the phone and driving, the higher risk behavior is taking your eyes off of the road to reach for the headset,” said Renee Cleary, Nectar’s CEO and Creative Director.  According to a Virginia Tech Transportation Institute study that observed drivers for over 6 million miles, truck drivers who reached for electronic devices while driving increased their risk of a crash or near crash event by 6.7 times as non-distracted drivers. 

“Nectar’s headset holders provide a safer option because the headset is easily accessed without looking away from the road or reaching away from your body.  Another important safety feature is that the holders remain attached to the headset.  If the headset falls from your ear, it won’t land between the car seat or under the gas pedal.” said Cleary.

Nectar’s headset holders are available in necklace and retractable styles; conveniently wear the headset around your neck or clip to your shirt.  The carrying solutions securely attach to virtually any Bluetooth headset including Jawbone, Motorola, BlueAnt, Nokia, and Samsung.  

In addition to short and informative product videos, Nectar provides free detailed Bluetooth headset reviews, which specifically address the user friendliness of the voice dialing capabilities: www.NectarAccessories.com/bt. Nectar’s headset holders are available from $14.99 to $29.99 at www.NectarAccessories.com.
