Do not take notes or look up phone
numbers while driving. Typing up a
“to do” list or flipping through your
address book takes attention away
from your primary responsibility of
driving safely.
•
Place calls when you are not
moving or before pulling into
traffic. Try to plan calls when you
will not be driving.
•
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 have the potential to divert
your attention from the road.
•
Use your mobile phone to call
emergency services for yourself
or others in the case of fire, traffic
accident or medical emergencies;
- Australia Dial (0-0-0)
- New Zealand Dial (1-1-1)
- International Dial (1-1-2)
- other local emergency number.
Remember, it is a free call when
dialling emergency services from
your mobile phone in Australia.
•
Use your mobile 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 the
emergency number, as you would
want others to do for you.
•
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,
local traffic autority or police
station.
