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.
Make people you are talking with
aware you are driving and if
necessary, suspend phone
conversations that have the
potential to divert your attention
from the road.
8. Use your 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 in
the case of fire, traffic accident,
road hazard, or medical
emergency. Remember, it is a
free call on your wireless phone.
"The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely when driving."

Ten Driving Safety Tips
9. Use your 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
emergencies where lives are in
danger, call 9-1-1, 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 to
9-1-1. But you can still 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 numbers.
