“Safety is the most important call you will ever make.”
A Guide to Safe and Responsible Wireless Phone Use
Tens of millions of people in North America today take advantage of the
unique combination of convenience, safety and value delivered by the
wireless telephone. Quite simply, the wireless phone gives people the
powerful ability to communicate by voice-almost anywhere, anytime with
the boss, with a client, with the kids, with emergency personnel or even
with the police. Each year, North Americans make billions of calls from their
wireless phones, and the numbers are rapidly growing.
But an important responsibility accompanies those benefits, one that every
wireless phone user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your first
responsibility. A wireless phone can be an invaluable tool, but good
judgment must be exercised at all times while driving a motor vehicle
whether on the phone or not.
The basic lessons are ones we all learned as teenagers. Driving requires
alertness, caution and courtesy. It requires a heavy dose of basic common
sense-keep your head up, keep your eyes on the road, check your mirrors
frequently and watch out for other drivers. It requires obeying all traffic
signs and signals and staying within the speed limit. It means using seat
belts and requiring other passengers to do the same.
But with wireless phone use, driving safely means a little more. This
brochure is a call to wireless phone users everywhere to make safety their
first priority when behind the wheel of a car. Wireless telecommunications
is keeping us in touch, simplifying our lives, protecting us in emergencies
and providing opportunities to help others in need. When it comes to the
use of wireless phones, safety is your most important call.
