to do for you.

special non-emergency wireless
assistance number when neces-
sary.
If you see a broken-down vehicle

Your wireless telephone gives you
the powerful ability to communicate
by voice – almost anywhere, any-
time. But an important responsibility
accompanies the benefits of wire-
less 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 com-
mon sense and remember the fol-
lowing 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 additional layer
of convenience and safety to your
wireless phone with one of the
many hands free accessories avail-
able 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 incom-
ing call at an inconvenient time, if
possible, 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 flip-
ping through your address book
takes attention away from your pri-
mary 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 people you are talking with
aware you are driving and suspend
conversations which have the
potential to divert your attention
from the road.
Use your wireless phone to call
for help.
Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency
number in the case of fire, traffic
accident or medical emergencies.
Remember, it’s a free call on your
wireless phone.
