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 seatbelts
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.
Wireless Phone "Safety Tips"
Below are safety tips to follow while driving and using a wireless phone which should be easy
to remember.
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.
3 Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure you place your wireless phone
within easy reach and where you can grab it without removing your eyes from the road.
If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voice mail 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.
