Safety
Whether you choose an installed mounted
device for your wireless phone or a speaker
phone accessory, take advantage of these
devices if available to you.
3. Make sure you place your wireless phone within
easy reach and where you can reach it without
removing your eyes from the road. If you get an
incoming call at an inconvenient time, if
possible, let your voicemail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving
conditions or situations. 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,
and ice can be hazardous, but so is heavy traffic.
As a driver, your first responsibility is to pay
attention to the road.
5. Don’t 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 is common sense. Do not 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.
