Under UK road law, it is legally permissible to hold and use a mobile phone while waiting at red traffic lights, provided the vehicle is stationary and the handbrake is applied.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

False. It is illegal to hold and use a mobile phone while stationary at red traffic lights.
The statement is false because UK law strictly prohibits holding and using a mobile phone while driving, which includes all temporary stops such as waiting at red lights or queueing in traffic.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the legal definition of driving under UK mobile phone regulations.
Being stopped at red traffic lights or waiting in a traffic queue is legally considered driving.
Highway Code Rule 149 prohibits the hand-held use of mobile devices while operating a vehicle in traffic.
2
Evaluate whether engaging the handbrake creates an exemption to the law.
Applying the handbrake does not exempt a driver from hand-held mobile phone prohibitions.
Drivers must be safely parked in a designated parking space with the engine switched off to legally hold and use a phone.
