Driver Safety Tips
Your wireless telephone gives you
the powerful ability to communicate
by voice - almost anywhere, anytime.
But an important responsibility
accompanies the benefits of wireless
phones, one that every user must
uphold. When driving a car, driving is
your first responsibility. When using
your wireless phone behind the wheel
of a car, practice good common sense
and remember the following tips:
Use a hands free device. If
•
possible, add an additional layer
of convenience and safety to your
wireless phone with one of the
many hands free accessories
available today.
Let the person you are speaking
•
with know you are driving; if
necessary, suspend the call in
heavy traffi c or hazardous weather
conditions.
Do not take notes or look up phone
•
numbers while driving. Jotting
down a "to do" list or flipping
through your address book takes
attention away from your primary
responsibility, driving safely.
If possible, place calls when you
•
are not moving or before pulling
into traffic. Try to plan calls when
you will not be driving.
Do not engage in stressful or
•
emotional conversations that may
be distracting. Make people you are
talking with aware you are driving
and suspend conversations that
have the potential to divert your
attention from the road.
Call roadside assistance or a
•
special nonemergency wireless
assistance number when
necessary. If you see a broken
down vehicle posing no serious
hazard, a broken traffic signal, a
minor traffic accident where no one
appears injured, or a vehicle you
know to be stolen, call roadside
assistance or other special
nonemergency wireless number.
