Emergency ProceduresDifficulty: 3/5

You’re driving in slow-moving traffic and have been stationary at temporary roadworks for several minutes. Your hand-held mobile phone is on the passenger seat and you want to quickly open a navigation app to check if there’s a quicker route. What should you do?

Explanation

Under Rule 149 of the Highway Code, you MUST be in proper control of your vehicle at all times and MUST NOT use a hand-held mobile phone or similar device for any purpose while driving or supervising a learner, including when you’re stationary in traffic or at roadworks. You must not pick up the device even briefly to open an app or dial a number. You may only handle a hand-held device after you’ve safely parked and switched off the engine.
