Smart Practices While Driving
Drive Safe, Call Smart SM
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices
and their accessories in the areas where you drive. Always
obey them. The use of these devices may be prohibited or
restricted in certain areas. Contact
www.motorola.com/callsmart
for more information.
Your mobile device lets you communicate by voice and data—
almost anywhere, anytime, wherever wireless service is
available and safe conditions allow. When driving a car, driving
is your first responsibility. If you choose to use your mobile
device while driving, remember the following tips:
ⅷ Get to know your Motorola phone 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.
ⅷ When available, use a hands-free device. If possible, add an
additional layer of convenience to your phone with one of the
many Motorola Original hands-free accessories available
today.
ⅷ Position your phone within easy reach. Be able to access
your phone without removing your eyes from the road. If you
receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible,
let your voice mail answer it for you.
ⅷ 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.
ⅷ 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.
ⅷ 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.
ⅷ 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.
ⅷ Use your phone to call for help. Dial 911 or other local
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, or
medical emergencies.*
