Driver Safety Tips
Your wireless telephone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice – almost anywhere, anytime. But an
important responsibility accompanies the benefits of wireless
phones, one that every user must uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using
your wireless phone behind the wheel of a car, practice good
common sense and remember the following tips:
1. When available, use a hands free device. If possible, add an
additional layer of convenience and safety to your wireless
phone with one of the many hands free accessories available
today.
2. 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.
3.
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting
down a “to do” list or flipping through your address book takes
attention away from your primary responsibility, driving safety.
4. If possible, place calls when you are not moving or before
pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car will be.
5. 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 have the potential to
divert your attention from the road.
