driving with such devices and may require hands-free

usage.

Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be able to

access your wireless phone without removing your eyes

from the road. If you get an incoming call at an

inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it for you.

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, ice and even heavy

traffic can be hazardous.

Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.

Jotting down a To Do list or flipping through your phonebook

takes your attention away from your primary responsibility,

driving safely.

Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when

you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan

calls when your car will be stationary. If you need to make a

call while moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road

and your mirrors, then continue.

Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may

be distracting. Make the people with whom you are talking

aware that you are driving and suspend conversations that

have the potential to divert your attention from the road.

Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial the emergency

number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical

emergencies. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless

phone!

Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If you

see a car accident, crime in progress or other serious

emergency where lives are in danger, call the emergency

number, as you would want others to do for you.

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 any other special non-emergency

wireless number.
