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 9-1-1 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 9-1-1 or other local
emergency number, 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 for emergency services. But you still can 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 number.
