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 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 9-1-1 or other local emergency
number in the case of fire, traffic accident, road hazard or medical emergency.
Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone!
9 Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your wireless phone provides
you a perfect opportunity to be a "Good Samaritan" in your community. If you see an
auto accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call
9-1-1 or other local emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.
10 Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-emergency assistance number when
necessary. Certain situations you encounter while driving may require attention, but are
not urgent enough to merit a call for emergency services. But you still can use your wireless
phone to lend a hand. 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.
Careless, distracted individuals and people driving irresponsibly represent a hazard to
everyone on the road. Since 1984, the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association
and the wireless industry have conducted educational outreach to inform wireless phone
users of their responsibilities as safe drivers and good citizens. As we approach a new century,
more and more of us will take advantage of the benefits of wireless telephones. And, as we
take to the roads, we all have a responsibility to drive safely.
The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely when driving.
