• 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 going through your address book
takes attention away from your primary
responsibility—driving safely.
• Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if
possible, place calls when your car is
not moving or before pulling into traffic.
If you must make a call while moving, dial
only a few numbers, check the road and your
mirrors, then continue.
