NEXTEL Wireless Driver Safety Tips

Drive Smart. Be Safe and Responsible.
Your Nextel wireless phone is a great communications tool - whether you need to instantly call for help in emergencies or alert your next appointment that you're running late. Nextel can help you do it all, while keeping both hands on the wheel. Here are some quick tips to keep in mind when you drive:

1. Give driving your full attention. Don't let anything interfere with your concentration.

2. Assess road conditions before making or taking a call.

3. Let voice mail pick up when it's inconvenient or unsafe to answer the phone.

4. Program your most frequently dialed numbers into your phone for speed dialing, have a passenger dial for you or use voice activated dialing.

5. Position your phone where it is easy to see and reach.

6. Keep your eyes on the road. Never take notes while driving.

7. Consider using a hands-free speakerphone or hands-free accessory, which allows you to keep both hands on the wheel when speaking. These include:
   • Earpieces
   • Headsets
   • Dash Mount Holders
   • Portable Car Kits
   • Hard Install Car Kits

8. Use your phone's Internet capabilities and Java applications before you drive.

9. Be a Good Samaritan. Dial 911 in emergencies to report accidents, impaired or aggressive drivers, crimes or fires. It's a free call. Know your Nextel phone number so emergency services personnel can call you back if necessary.
