3. Make sure you place your wireless device within easy reach and where you can
reach it without removing your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at
an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voicemail 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. Don't 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. Do not 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 device to call for help. Your wireless device is one of the
greatest tools you can own to protect yourself and your family in dangerous
situations -- with your device at your side, help is only three numbers away. Dial
911 or another local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, road
hazard, or medical emergency. Remember, it' s a free call on your wireless device!
9. Use your wireless device to help others in emergencies. Your wireless device
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 another local emergency number, as you would
want others to do for you.
