Road safety
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful
ability to communicate by voice, almost
anywhere, anytime. But an important
responsibility accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every user must
uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first
responsibility. When using your wireless
phone behind the wheel of a car, practice
good common sense and remember the
following tips:
• Get to know your wireless phone and its
features, such as speed dial and redial. If
available, these features help you to
place your call without taking your
attention off the road.
• When available, use a hands-free device.
If possible, add an extra layer of
convenience and safety to your wireless
phone with one of the many hands-free
accessories available today.
• Position your wireless phone within easy
reach. Be able to access your wireless
phone without removing your eyes from
the road. If you get an incoming call at
an inconvenient time, let your voice mail
answer it for you.
• 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. Jotting down a To
Do list or flipping through your Address
Book takes your attention away from
your primary responsibility, driving
safely.
