3.

Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be able to access 
your wireless phone 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. 

5.

Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting 
down a “to do” list or flipping through your address book takes 
attention away from your primary responsibility, driving safely. 

6.

Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when 
you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls 
when your car will be stationary. If you need to make a call while 
moving, 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. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving 
and suspend conversations that have the potential to divert your 
attention from the road. 

8.

Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1 or other local 
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical 
emergencies. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone! 

9.

Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If you see 
an auto accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency 
where lives are in danger, call 9-1-1 or other local emergency 
number, as you would want others to do for you. 

10.

Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless 
assistance number when necessary. If you see a broken-down 
vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor 
traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you 
know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or other special non-
emergency number.
