Maya is 17 and has a provisional license. Her phone is in a dashboard mount and connects to the car by Bluetooth, so she can use voice commands for navigation without touching it. Which statement about her phone use while driving is correct?
Correct answer: She may not use it while driving, even hands-free, because she is under 18.
Why
New drivers need all of their attention on the road, and phone use is a distraction even when both hands stay on the wheel. The manual advises drivers under 18 to turn the phone off or put it in the back seat. The law has a narrow exception for any driver who calls for medical or other emergency help when no other person in the vehicle can make the call.
