3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure you
place your wireless phone within easy reach and where you can
grab it without removing your eyes from the road. If you get an
incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voice
mail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions or
situations. 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 and ice can be
hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driver, your first
responsibility is to pay attention to the road.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If you
are reading an Contact list or business card, or writing a to do list
while driving a car, you are not watching where you are going. It's
common sense. Don't get caught in a dangerous situation
because you are reading or writing and not paying attention to the
road or nearby vehicles.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when
you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan your
calls before you begin your trip or attempt to coincide your calls
with times you may be stopped at a stop sign, red light or
otherwise stationary. But if you need to dial while driving, follow
this simple tip-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. Stressful or emotional conversations and driving
do not mix-they are distracting and even dangerous when you are
behind the wheel of a car. Make people you are talking with aware
you are driving and if necessary, suspend conversations which
have the potential to divert your attention from the road.
