A 17-year-old driver wants to make a nonemergency hands-free phone call while driving. No emergency exception applies. What is the California rule?
The call is allowed if it lasts less than one minute and remains hands-free
The call is allowed whenever the phone is mounted
The call is allowed if no passenger is present
The call is not allowed because it is nonemergency device use✓Respuesta correcta
Explicación
A driver under 18 generally may not use a wireless phone or electronic communications device while driving, even hands-free. Hands-free operation does not create an ordinary social-call exception; the limited statutory emergency purposes are different and are excluded here.
