Safety
your first responsibility. When
using your wireless phone behind
the wheel of a car, practice good
common sense and remember the
following tips:
1. Get to know your wireless
phone and its features such as
speed dial and redial. Carefully
read your instruction manual
and learn to take advantage of
valuable features most phones
offer, including automatic redial
and memory. Also, work to
memorize the phone keypad so
you can use the speed dial
function without taking your
attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands-free
device. A number of hands-free
wireless phone accessories are
readily available today. Whether
you choose an installed
mounted device for your
wireless phone or a speaker
phone accessory, take
advantage of these devices if
available to you.
3. Make sure you place your
wireless phone within easy reach
and where you can reach it
without removing your eyes
from the road. If you get an
incoming call at an inconvenient
time, if possible, let your
Voicemail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations during
hazardous driving conditions or
situations. 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, and ice can be
hazardous, but so is heavy
traffic. As a driver, your first
responsibility is to pay attention
to the road.
5. Don’t 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.
Do not 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
