Section 13

• 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.
• Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls
when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic.
Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. If you
need to make a call while moving, dial only a few numbers,
check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that
may be distracting. Make the people with whom you are
talking aware that you are driving and suspend
conversations that have the potential to divert your
attention from the road.
• Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial the
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or
medical emergencies. Remember, it is a free call on your
wireless phone!
• Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If
you see a car accident, crime in progress or other serious
emergency where lives are in danger, call the emergency
number, as you would want others to do for you.
• 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 any other special non-
emergency wireless number.
