Ten Driving Safety Tips
72
VAR Language: English; VAR issue date: 11-Juni-2003
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic.
If possible, place calls when you are
not moving or before pulling into
traffic. Try to plan your calls before
you begin your trip, or attempt to
coincide your calls with times you
may be stopped at a stop sign, red
light or otherwise stationary. But if
you need to dial while driving, follow
this simple tip – 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.
Stressful or emotional conversations
and driving do not mix – they are
distracting and even dangerous
when you are behind the wheel.
Make people you are talking with
aware you are driving and if
necessary, suspend phone
conversations that have the
potential to divert your attention
from the road.
Use your phone to call for help.
Your wireless phone is one of the
greatest tools you can own to
protect yourself and your family in
dangerous situations – with your
phone at your side, help is only three
numbers away. Dial 9-1-1 in the case
of fire, traffic accident, road hazard,
or medical emergency. Remember, it
is a free call on your wireless phone.
Use your phone to help others in
emergencies.
Your wireless phone provides you a
perfect opportunity to be a "good
Samaritan" in your community. If
you see an auto accident, crime in
progress or other serious
emergencies where lives are in
danger, call 9-1-1, as you would
want others to do for you.
Call roadside assistance or a special
wireless non-emergency assistance
number when necessary.
Certain situations you encounter
while driving may require attention,
but are not urgent enough to merit a
call to 9-1-1. But you can still use
your wireless phone to lend a hand.
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 numbers.
