Safe & Responsible DrivingStandalone practice
An adult driver wants to hold a mobile phone to the ear for an ordinary call while driving on a public highway. Is this allowed?
Correct answer: No, except for a legal emergency use
Why
Do not hold a phone to your ear for an ordinary call while operating on a public highway. The rule includes being temporarily stopped for traffic or a signal. Adult hands-free use and specified emergency or official-duty communications have separate exceptions. Safely park where the vehicle may remain stationary before handling a nonessential call. Drivers under 18 have a stricter rule that also covers hands-free calls.
