Using a car phone mount can mean the difference between life and death since these tools help to reduce the risks associated with phone use in cars. That being said, even with a phone mount, you should never text and drive.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the different types of car mounts, and how do they differ from one another?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Generally, there are two basic types of car phone mounts: the ones that attach to your windshield or dashboard, and the ones that attach to your AC vent. The former tend to be a little more versatile since you have to have a vent with slats for the latter to work. And, not only do dashboard and windshield mounts tend to be easy to secure on most surfaces, they can also be positioned very close to the driver. Vent mounts are easy to install and can be convenient to read, but they can also block airflow, depending on their size. If you go with a vent mount, make sure you have vents with slats in a convenient location.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aukey Car Phone Mount The Aukey Car Phone Mount will securely hold and protect your phone as you cruise around, no matter how many speed bumps you hit or corners you take too fast.
