• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be
distracting. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend
conversations that can divert your attention away from the road.
• Use your mobile device to call for help. Dial 911 or other local emergency
number in the case of fire, traffic accident, or medical emergencies (wherever
wireless phone service is available).
• Use your mobile device to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto
accident, crime in progress, or other serious emergency where lives are in danger,
call 911 or other local emergency number (wherever wireless phone service is
available), as you would want others to do for you.
• Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless
assistance number when necessary. 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 (wherever wireless phone service
is available).
