Correct answer

  • BNo, si no se dispone de un “manos libres”.No, unless you have a hands-free system.
Explanation

Article 18.2 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC) prohibits using a mobile phone while driving, unless the communication takes place without using your hands and without a headset, earphones or similar, as with a hands-free system. You may not handle the phone even when stopped at a traffic light or driving at low speed.
