Note from Dani in Israel

Clause 28A in the Israeli traffic law determines that , while the vehicle in movement, a driver must hold the steering wheel with both hands except for driving action.

Clause 28B refers to 28A and determines that a driver is allowed to use the cell phone only by means of a microphone fixed in the vehicle.

By the way, clause 169 forbids driving with earphones, but recently the Israeli supreme court acquitted a woman who drove with an earphone on one of her ears. So, on this way it becomes legal.
