responsibility is to drive the vehicle. A driver's
attention to the road must always be his/her
primary focus when driving. For your safety

before placing or taking a telephone call.

the telephone when road, weather and traffic
conditions permit. Some jurisdictions prohibit
the driver from using a mobile telephone while
driving a vehicle.
