Health and safety information
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.
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
9-1-1 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!
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 9-1-1 or other
local emergency number, as you would want others to do
for you.
Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non
emergency 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 still can 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
60
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.
Careless, distracted individuals and people driving
irresponsibly represent a hazard to everyone on the road.
Since 1984, the Cellular Telecommunications Industry
Association and the wireless industry have conducted
educational outreach to inform wireless phone users of
their responsibilities as safe drivers and good citizens. As
we approach a new century, more and more of us will take
advantage of the benefits of wireless telephones.
And, as we take to the roads, we all have a responsibility
to drive safely.
"The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone
safely when driving."
