For SMS text messaging, it is a recommended safety practice that you never send or view received text messages while driving; in California, and likely other states in the future, SMS messaging by a driver is also a legal violation.

Position phone within easy reach.

Keep your eyes on the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voicemail answer it for you.

Assess the traffic before dialing, or place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic.

Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. Never dial, send SMS text messages, or enter other text while you are driving.

Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving.

If necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Driving in rain, sleet, snow, ice, fog, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.

Do not take notes, look up phone numbers, or perform any other activities that require your attention while driving. Jotting down a to-do list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility, driving safely.

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.
