Road Safety
If you have downloaded VoIP software to your device in order to
use it as a phone, you should exercise caution in driving while
using that feature.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using
your wireless device behind the wheel of a car, practice good
common sense and remember the following tips:
1. Get to know your wireless device and its features, such as
speed dial and redial. If available, these features help you
to place your call without taking your attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If possible, add
an additional layer of convenience and safety to your
wireless device with one of the many hands free
accessories available today.
3. Position your wireless device within easy reach. Be able to
access your wireless device without removing your eyes
from the road. If you get an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it for you.
4. 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.
