Safety: the most important call

• A GUIDE TO SAFE AND RESPONSIBLE WIRELESS
PHONE USE
Tens of millions of people in the U.S. today take advantage of the unique
combination of convenience, safety and value delivered by the wireless
telephone. Quite simply, the wireless phone gives people the powerful
ability to communicate by voice – with the boss, with a client, with the
kids, with emergency personnel, or even with the police. Each year,
Americans make billions of calls from their wireless phones, and the
numbers are rapidly growing.
But an important responsibility accompanies those benefits, one that
every wireless phone user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your
first responsibility. A wireless phone can be an invaluable tool, but good
judgment must be exercised at all times while driving a motor vehicle–
whether on the phone or not.
The basic lessons are ones we all learned as teenagers. Driving safely
requires alertness, caution and courtesy. It requires a heavy dose of basic
common sense – keep your head up, keep your eyes on the road, check
your mirrors frequently and watch out for other drivers. It requires
obeying all traffic signs and signals and staying within the speed limit. It
means using seatbelts and requiring other passengers to do the same.
But with wireless phone use, driving safely means a little more. This
brochure is a call to wireless phone users everywhere to make safety their
first priority when behind the wheel of a car. Wireless
telecommunications is keeping us in touch, simplifying our lives,
protecting us in emergencies and providing opportunities to help others
in need.
When it comes to the use of wireless phones, safety is your most
important call.
