possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.

call in heavy trafc or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy

ipping through your address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility, driving
safely.

before pulling into trafc. Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. If you need to make
a call while moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.

people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations that have the
potential to divert your attention from the road.

case of re, trafc accident or medical emergencies. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless
phone!

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.
10. 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 trafc signal,
a minor trafc accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call
roadside assistance or other special non-emergency wireless number. "The wireless industry
reminds you to use your phone safely when driving. " For more information, please call I-888-901
