Guidelines for safe and efficient use
Driver Safety Tips
Your mobile telephone gives you the
powerful ability to communicate almost
anywhere, anytime. But an important
responsibility accompanies the benefits of
mobile phones, one that every user must
uphold. When driving a car, driving is your
first responsibility. When using your mobile
phone behind the wheel of a car, practice
good common sense and remember the
following tips:
• Use a hands-free kit with the device to
add an additional layer of convenience and
18
safety to your wireless phone with one of
the many hands free accessories available
today.
• Let the person you are speaking with know
you are driving; if necessary, disconnect
the call in heavy traffic or hazardous
weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice
and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
• Do not take or write notes or look up
phone numbers while driving. Typing up a
"to do" list or flipping through your address
book takes attention away from your
primary responsibility of driving safely.
