During ordinary driving in a car, may a telephone conversation take place without using hands, audio headsets, earphones or similar equipment?

Correct answer

Yes, provided attention is maintained and safety is not compromised.

Yes, that communication is excepted from the prohibition in Article 18.2, but attention and safety must be maintained. Not every device called hands-free qualifies: it must not require manual use or earphones. The system need not be built into the vehicle or the phone mounted in a holder to satisfy that exception. Even when permitted, conversation can distract; avoid calls while moving.
