Safe & Responsible DrivingStandalone practice
You are 30. Your phone is in a dashboard mount and connects to the car's speakers. A call comes in while you drive on a city street. Which way of handling the call is legal in Oregon?
Correct answer: Tap the mounted screen once to answer, then talk through the car's speakers with both hands on the wheel.
Why
Even a legal hands-free call takes some attention away from driving, so keep calls short or let a passenger handle the phone. If you need to read or send a message, first pull off the road or park in a safe place. A stop at a signal or in a traffic jam does not count, because the law still treats you as driving.
