A North Carolina driver younger than 18 is operating a moving vehicle on a public road. Which phone use is specifically listed as an exception?
- Calling 911 during an emergency
- Reading a text from a parent
- Sending an email to a school
- Using navigation for a routine trip
Answer: Calling 911 during an emergency. The handbook bars drivers under 18 from using a cell phone or related technology while the vehicle is moving on a public street, highway, or public vehicular area. It names calling 911 in an emergency as the exception. Reading a message, sending email, and routine navigation are not listed exceptions to that young-driver restriction. The practical cue is to keep the phone untouched whenever the car is moving, reserving the permitted call for an actual emergency that requires 911.
