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 911 or other local
emergency number in the case
of fire, traffic accident, road
hazard, or medical emergency.
Remember, it’s 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 911 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
can still 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.
The above tips are meant as
general guidelines. Before
deciding to use your mobile
device while operating a vehicle,
it is recommended that you
consult your applicable
jurisdiction’s local laws or other
regulations regarding such use.
Such laws or other regulations
may prohibit or otherwise restrict
the manner in which a driver
may use his or her phone while
operating a vehicle.
