When riding an electric scooter, are you permitted to use a telephone that requires you to hold the handset or microphone in your hand?
Explanation

Correct answer: No

No. Under art. 45 para. 2 pt. 1 of the Road Traffic Act, a driver must not use a telephone while driving if it requires holding the handset or microphone in the hand. An electric scooter is a vehicle within the meaning of the Act, so the ban also covers its rider.
