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.
Wireless Phone “Safety Tips”
Below are safety tips to follow while driving and using a wireless
phone which should be easy to remember:
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as
speed dial and redial. Carefully read your instruction manual
and learn to take advantage of valuable features most
phones offer, including automatic redial and memory. Also,
work to memorize the phone keypad so you can use the
speed dial function without taking your attention off the
road.
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. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure
you place your wireless phone within easy reach and where
you can grab it without removing your eyes from the road. If
you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible,
let your voice mail 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. Do not 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’s common sense. Don’t get caught
