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.
