Correct answer

  • CSí, cuando la comunicación tenga lugar sin usar las manos, cascos ni auriculares.Yes, when the call is made without using your hands, earphones or a headset.
Explanation

Under Article 18.2 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC), using a mobile phone while driving is prohibited, except when the call is made without using your hands and without earphones, a headset or similar devices. An approved (type-approved) device is not enough if you have to use your hands or earphones.
