Health and Safety Information

4. 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.

5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.

Jotting down a To Do list or flipping through your phonebook
takes your attention away from your primary responsibility,
driving safely.

6. 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.

7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that

may be distracting. Make the people with whom you are
talking aware that you are driving and suspend conversations
that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.

8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial the emergency

number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical
emergencies. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless
phone!

9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If you

see a car accident, crime in progress or other serious
emergency where lives are in danger, call the emergency
number, as you would want others to do for you.

10. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a

broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one
appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call
roadside assistance or any other special non-emergency
wireless number.
