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 are going. It is
common sense. Do not get caught
in a dangerous situation because
you are reading or writing and not
paying attention to the road or
nearby vehicles.
6.Dial sensibly and assess the traffic;
if possible, place calls when you
are not moving or before pulling
into traffic. Try to plan your calls
before you begin your trip or
attempt to coincide your calls with
times you may be stopped at a
stop sign, red light, or otherwise
stationary. But if you need to dial
while driving, follow this simple tip
- 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. 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 911 or
other local emergency number in
the case of fire, traffic accident,
road hazard, or medical emergency.
Remember, it’s a free call on your
wireless phone!
9.Use your wireless phone to help
others in emergencies. Your
wireless phone provides you a
