Washington Written Drivers Permit Practice Test

While driving, an intermediate license holder may use a cell phone

1. Only for navigation purposes

2. Anytime when on speakerphone

3. Only in an emergency, but basically never

4. Whenever convenient

The correct answer is: Only in an emergency, but basically never

Intermediate license holders who are under 18 years old are not permitted to use a cell phone while driving, except in certain emergency situations. This is to keep young drivers from being distracted and potentially causing accidents. Options A and B are incorrect because they both allow the use of a cell phone in non-emergency situations, which is not allowed for intermediate license holders. Option D is incorrect because it implies that cell phone use is unrestricted, which is not the case for intermediate license holders. Option C is the most accurate because it acknowledges that cell phone use is only allowed in rare emergency situations.
