Cevap
Ignore the incoming call and wait until you have safely parked before retrieving any messages.
Even though hands-free systems are legally permitted if used without holding the handset, conducting a phone call creates substantial cognitive distraction. In demanding traffic conditions, such as a multi-lane urban road, the safest action is to ignore the call and allow it to go to voicemail until you are parked safely.
