An electronic system, a method, and a computer program product support wireless communication with reduced distraction for a driver experiencing challenging driving conditions. The method includes connecting to a communication session with second electronic device(s) via a communication subsystem of the electronic device and via a communication network. The method includes receiving an indication of a challenging driving condition from a first image stream from image capturing device(s) positionable to have a field of view encompassing a face of a driver of a vehicle and/or a detected condition from sensor(s) that detects external conditions to the vehicle that can require the driver to be more attentive while the vehicle is in motion. In response to receiving the indication of the challenging driving condition, the method includes communicating a notification over the communication session to the second electronic device(s), the notification indicating that the driver is in the challenging driving condition.
