2 When available, use a hands-free device. If
possible, add an additional layer of convenience to
your wireless phone with one of the many Motorola
Original™ hands-free accessories available today.
3 Position your wireless phone within easy
reach. Be able to access your wireless phone
without removing your eyes from the road. If you
receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if
possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.
4 Let the person you are speaking with know you
are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in
heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions.
Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy trafficcan be
hazardous.
5 If you receive an incoming call at an
inconvenient time do not take notes or look up
phone numbers while driving. Jotting down a "to
do" list or going through your address book takes
attention away from your primary responsibility-
driving safely.
6 Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible,
place calls when you are not moving or before
pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car
will be stationary. If you need to make a call while
moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road
and your mirrors, then continue.
7 Do not engage in stressful or emotional
conversations that may be distracting. Make
people you are talking with aware you are driving
