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 and ice 
can be hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driver, your first responsibility is 
to pay attention to the road.
5 Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If you are reading an

Consumer Update on Wireless PhonesU.S. Food and Drug Administration 1. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated 
with using wireless phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless phones are 
absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF) in 
the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels of RF when in 
the stand-by mode. Whereas high...

FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal 
Communications Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States 
must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA 
and other health agencies for safety questions about wireless phones. FCC also 
regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely upon. While these 
base stations operate at higher power than do...

numbers of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer promoting 
effect if one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data that is directly applicable 
to human populations, but 10 or more years follow-up may be needed to provide 
answers about some health effects, such as cancer. This is because the interval between 
the time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time tumors develop - if they 
do - may be many, many years. The interpretation of...

8. What has FDA done to measure the radiofrequency energy coming 
from  wireless phones?
The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical 
standard for measuring the radiofrequency energy (RF) exposure from wireless 
phones and other wireless handsets with the participation and leadership of FDA 
scientists and engineers. The standard, Recommended Practice for Determining the 
Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption...
