your first responsibility. If you choose to use your mobile device 
while driving, remember the following tips:
• Get to know your Motorola mobile device and its 
features such as speed dial and redial. If available, 
these features help you to place your call without taking 
your attention off the road.
• When available, use a handsfree 
device. If possible, add an additional layer 
of convenience to your mobile device with 
one of the many Motorola Original 
handsfree accessories available today.
• Position your mobile device within easy reach. Be 
able to access your mobile device without removing your 
eyes from the road. If you receive an incoming call at an 
inconvenient time, if possible, let your voicemail answer it 
for you.
• 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.
• Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while 
driving. Jotting down a “to do” list or going through your 
address book takes attention away from your primary 
responsibility—driving safely.
• Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, 
place calls when your car is not moving or before 
pulling into traffic. 
If you must make a call while 
moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road and your 
mirrors, then continue.
• 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 can divert your attention away from the 
road.
• Use your mobile device to call for help. Dial 911 or 
other local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic 
accident, or medical emergencies.*
• Use your mobile device to help others in 
emergencies. If you see an auto accident, crime in 
progress, or other serious emergency where lives are in 
danger, call 911 or other local emergency number, as you 
would want others to do for you.*
• 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 wireless number.*
* Wherever wireless phone service is available.
