BDifficulty 2/5

The driver of a private car is temporarily stopped at a red traffic light. May they use their hands to talk on a mobile phone?

Correct answer

No.

No. A temporary traffic-light stop remains part of driving and does not permit manual phone use. Article 18.2 provides for communication without using the hands or audio headsets, earphones or similar equipment. The exception for certified or approved wireless devices integrated into motorcycle or moped helmets is exclusively for intercommunication or navigation without affecting safety; it does not authorise manual phone operation.
