Road Safety
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to communicate by voice, almost
anywhere, anytime. But an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every user must uphold. Always comply with road safety
regulations on using a mobile phone while driving. Using a mobile phone while
driving can be dangerous.
When driving 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. If available, these features help you to place your call without taking
your attention off the road.
2. 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 available today.
3. 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
incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it for you.
4. Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving. Suspend the call
in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and
even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting down a "to
do" list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from your
primary responsibility, driving safely.
