Correct answer
The driver does not stop perceiving the signs if they use the hands-free device.
Using a mobile phone, including one with a hands-free device, quadruples the risk of an accident at the wheel, because the driver stops paying attention to driving and focuses on dealing with the phone, causing a distraction. In addition, if the conversation lasts more than one and a half minutes, the driver risks failing to perceive a very important part of the road signs and obstacles, even when using a hands-free device.
