Appendix B: Guide to Safe and
Responsible Wireless Phone Use
Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association
"Safety is the most important call you will ever make."
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-ALMOST
ANYWHERE, ANYTIME-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 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.
