Take this 9-question quiz to test your knowledge and get tips for reducing your risk of crashing. Question 1 of 9You’re catching a ride to your next job site with a co-worker (the driver). You both agree it’s important to call ahead to confirm that the building inspector will be there when you arrive. You see your driver reaching for their cell phone to make the call. What should you do?* Say something like, “Hey, are you sure it’s OK to call when driving?” Say something like, “I got it. You look after the driving; I’ll look after the call.” Then reach for your phone and start dialing. Do nothing. Let them text. It’s their phone and it’s their vehicle, so it’s their decision. Do nothing now. Report it to your supervisor later that day (if you aren’t busy mired in reporting the resulting traffic incident). Question 2 of 9While driving, your cell phone should be _______.* In your lap so you can easily reach it. In your pocket where you can quickly reach it if someone calls.

Take the call but tell your boss you’ll call back in a few minutes. Immediately pull to the side of the road and take the call before the caller hangs up. Ignore the call until you find a safe location to pull off the roadway well out of the way of other traffic, and park. Then listen to the message and/or give your boss a call.
