Wireless Phone Safety Tips
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 wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1 or other 
local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, or 
medical emergencies.
• Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If 
you see an auto accident, crime in progress, or other serious 
emergency where lives are in danger, call 9-1-1 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.
