1 Answers
Hazards of answering phone calls while driving: 1. Distracts attention and weakens response capability; 2. Increases the risk of traffic accidents compared to normal conditions; 3. Affects the traffic efficiency of other vehicles and exacerbates road congestion. The main danger of making phone calls while driving is not the inability to hold the steering wheel with both hands, but rather that phone calls can easily distract the driver, thereby affecting their reaction ability during driving. According to the newly revised regulations on the application and use of motor vehicle driving licenses: driving a motor vehicle while making or answering handheld phone calls or engaging in other behaviors that hinder safe driving will result in a 2-point deduction. However, some provinces and cities, within the scope of discretionary benchmarks, impose fines and a 2-point deduction for making or answering phone calls, with regulations varying slightly by region.
