Correct answer

  • BDetener el vehículo en un lugar seguro para poder usar el teléfono.Stop the vehicle in a safe place so that you can use the phone.
Explanation

Under article 18.2 of the General Traffic Regulations, a mobile phone may not be used while driving, except hands-free without earphones. Stopping at a traffic light or a pedestrian crossing still counts as driving; to use the phone you must stop the vehicle in a safe place where stopping is allowed.
