9. 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.
10.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
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."
