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

Sa

automatic redial and memory. Also, work to

fet

memorize the phone keypad so you can use the

y

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 speakerphone accessory, take advantage of

 

these devices if available to you.

3.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 voicemail 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 first responsibility is to pay attention to the road.

5.Don’t 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. It is common sense. Do not get caught in a dangerous situation because you are reading or writing and not paying attention to the road or nearby vehicles.
