Your wireless phone gives you the
powerful ability to communicate by
voice almost anywhere, anytime.
An important responsibility
accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every
user must uphold.
When operating 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:
1. Get to know your wireless phone
and its features such as speed
dial and redial. Carefully read
your instruction manual and
learn to take advantage of
valuable features most phones
offer, including automatic redial
and memory. Also, work to
memorize the phone keypad so
you can use the speed dial
function without taking your
attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands-
free device. A number of hands-
free wireless phone accessories
are readily available today.
Whether you choose an installed
mounted device for your
wireless phone or a speaker
phone accessory, take
advantage of these devices if
available to you.
3. Make sure you place your
wireless phone within easy
reach and where you can reach
it without removing your eyes
from the road. If you get an
incoming call at an inconvenient
time, if possible, let your
Voicemail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations during
hazardous driving conditions or
situations. 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, and ice can be
hazardous, but so is heavy
traffic. As a driver, your first
responsibility is to pay attention
to the road.
5. Don’t take notes or look up
phone numbers while driving. If
you are reading an address book
or business card, or writing a
“to-do” list while driving a car,
you are not watching where you
