You want to make a telephone call while driving a vehicle. What must you be aware of?

Your answer is correct. According to German traffic rules, making a telephone call while driving can distract you in two main ways: first, the conversation itself can take your attention away from the road, and second, operating the phone (dialing, handling the device) can distract you physically and mentally. Even when using a hands-free unit, while it is legally allowed, you can still be distracted by the conversation, so caution is necessary. Therefore, recognizing both sources of distraction—being engaged in the call and handling the phone—is important for safe driving.
