Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use (Continued)
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 device to
add an additional layer of
convenience and 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,
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. Typing up a "to do"
list or flipping through your
address book takes attention
away from your primary
responsibility of driving safely.

• Place calls when you are not
moving or before pulling into
traffic. Try to plan calls when
you will not be driving.
• 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
have the potential to divert
your attention from the road.
• Use your mobile phone to
call emergency services for
yourself or others in the case
of fire, traffic accident or
medical emergencies;
- Australia Dial (0-0-0)
- New Zealand Dial (1-1-1)
- International Dial (1-1-2)
- other local emergency
number.
Remember, it is a free call
when dialling emergency
services from your mobile
phone in Australia.
• Use your mobile phone to
help others in emergencies.
