“Safety is the most important call you will ever make.”
A guide to safe and responsible wireless phone
use
TENS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE IN THE U.S. TODAY
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE UNIQUE COMBINATION OF
CONVENIENCE, SAFETY AND VALUE DELIVERED BY
THE WIRELESS TELEPHONE. QUITE SIMPLY, THE
WIRELESS PHONE GIVES PEOPLE THE POWERFUL
ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE BY VOICE-ALMOST
ANYWHERE, ANYTIME-WITH THE BOSS, WITH A
CLIENT, WITH THE KIDS, WITH EMERGENCY
PERSONNEL OR EVEN WITH THE POLICE. EACH YEAR,
AMERICANS MAKE BILLIONS OF CALLS FROM THEIR
WIRELESS PHONES, AND THE NUMBERS ARE RAPIDLY
GROWING.
But an important responsibility accompanies those
benefits, one that every wireless phone user must uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. A
wireless phone can be an invaluable tool, but good
judgment must be exercised at all times while driving a
motor vehicle whether on the phone or not.
The basic lessons are ones we all learned as teenagers.
Driving requires alertness, caution and courtesy. It
requires a heavy dose of basic common sense-keep your
head up, keep your eyes on the road, check your mirrors
frequently and watch out for other drivers.
It requires obeying all traffic signs and signals and staying
within the speed limit. It means using seat belts and
requiring other passengers to do the same.
But with wireless phone use, driving safely means a little
more. This brochure is a call to wireless phone users
everywhere to make safety their first priority when behind
the wheel of a car. Wireless telecommunications is keeping
us in touch, simplifying our lives, protecting us in
emergencies and providing opportunities to help others in
need. When it comes to the use of wireless phones, safety
is your most important call.
