Using a mobile phone while driving creates a distraction to the driver which may increase
the likelihood of an accident.
When using the phone while driving, keep conversations short and do not make notes or
read documents. Before answering calls consider your circumstances. Pull off the road and
park before making or answering calls when driving conditions require (e.g. bad weather,
high traffic density, presence of children in the car, difficult junctions or manoeuvres.)
Remember, driving comes first, not the call!
Abide by local laws.
Drive safely
