5. Do not 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. Don't 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 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 911 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!
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 911 or other local
emergency number, as you would
want others to do for you.
