“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 THE U.S. 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, 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.
