Safety
Using Your Phone While Driving
Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without
a hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as
to specific restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.
When using your phone in the car:
•
Get to know your phone and its features, such as speed dial
and re-dial.
•
When available, use a hands-free device.
•
Position your phone within easy reach.
•
Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if
necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous
weather conditions.
•
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
•
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls
when stationary or before pulling into traffic.
•
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that
may divert your attention from the road.
•
Dial 911 to report serious emergencies. It’s free from your
wireless phone.
•
Use your phone to help others in emergencies.
•
Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless
number when necessary.
Following Safety Guidelines
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow
any special regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas
where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.
