Smart Practices While Driving

Driving Safety
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices and
their accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey
them. The use of these devices may be prohibited or restricted in
certain areas—for example, handsfree use only may be required.

Your mobile device lets you communicate by voice and data—almost
anywhere, anytime, wherever wireless service is available and safe
conditions allow. When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. If
you choose to use your mobile device while driving, remember the
following tips:
• Get to know your Motorola mobile device and its features
such as speed dial, redial and voice dial. If available, these
features help you to place your call without taking your attention off
the road.
• When available, use a handsfree device. If possible, add an
additional layer of convenience to your mobile device with one of
the many Motorola Original handsfree accessories available today.
• Position your mobile device within easy reach. Be able to
access your mobile device without removing your eyes from the
road. If you receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if
possible, let your voicemail answer it for you.
• 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, ice, and even heavy traffic
can be hazardous.
• Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
Jotting down a "to do" list or going through your address book takes
attention away from your primary responsibility—driving safely.
• Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls
when your car is not moving or before pulling into traffic. If
you must make a call while moving, dial only a few numbers, check
the road and your mirrors, then continue.
• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that
may be distracting. Make people you are talking with aware you
are driving and suspend conversations that can divert your attention
away from the road.
• Use your mobile device to call for help. Dial 911 or other local
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, or medical
emergencies (wherever wireless phone service is available).
• Use your mobile device to help others in emergencies. 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
(wherever wireless phone service is available), as you would want
others to do for you.
• Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless
assistance number when necessary. If you see a broken-down
vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor
