5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If you are
reading an address book or business card, or writing a "to-do" list while
driving a car, you are not watching where you are going. It is 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.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless phone is one of the
greatest tools you can own to protect yourself and your family in dangerous
situations — with your phone at your side, help is only three numbers
away. Dial 911 or other local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic
accident, road hazard or medical emergency. Remember, it is a free call on
your wireless phone!
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your wireless
phone provides you a perfect opportunity to be a "Good Samaritan" in your
community. If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other serious
emergency where lives are in danger, call 911 or other local emergency
number, as you would want others to do for you.
10. Call roadside assistance or a special wireless nonemergency assistance
number when necessary. Certain situations you encounter while driving
may require attention, but are not urgent enough to merit a call for
emergency services. But you can still use your wireless phone to lend a
hand. 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
non-emergency wireless number.
