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 primary 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 voice-mail 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
primary 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.
This 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.
