Appendix A
7 Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting. Stressful or
emotional conversations and driving do not mix--they are distracting and even dangerous
when you are behind the wheel of a car. Make people you are talking with aware you are
driving and if necessary, suspend conversations which have the potential to divert your
attention from the road.
8 Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless phone is one of the greatest tools you
can own to protect yourself and your family in dangerous situations--with your phone at
your side, help is only three numbers away. Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency number in
the case of fire, traffic accident, road hazard or medical emergency. Remember, it is a free
call on your wireless phone!
9 Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your wireless phone provides you a
perfect opportunity to be a "Good Samaritan" in your community. If you see an auto
accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call 9-1-1
or other local emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.
10 Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-emergency assistance number when
necessary. Certain situations you encounter while driving may require attention, but are not
urgent enough to merit a call for emergency services. But you still can use your wireless
phone to lend a hand. 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 other special non-emergency wireless number.
Careless, distracted individuals and people driving irresponsibly represent a hazard to everyone
on the road. Since 1984, the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association and the wireless
industry have conducted educational outreach to inform wireless phone users of their
responsibilities as safe drivers and good citizens. As we approach a new century, more and more
of us will take advantage of the benefits of wireless telephones. And, as we take to the roads, we
all have a responsibility to drive safely.
The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely when driving.
