10 Driver Safety Tips

Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice almost anywhere, anytime. An
important responsibility accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.
When operating 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. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such
as speed dial and redial. Carefully read your instruction
manual and learn to take advantage of valuable features
most phones offer, including automatic redial and
memory. Also, work to memorize the phone keypad so
you can use the speed dial function without taking your
attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands-free device. A number of
hands-free wireless phone accessories are readily
available today. 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. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. 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. 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 is 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.
