Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, as long as using this device does not affect riding safety.

Yes. On a motorcycle, you may use a certified or approved wireless device built into your helmet for navigation or communication, as long as it does not affect riding safety. You do not have to disconnect it while riding, because it is designed to be used on the move. Listening to music with it is not covered by this exception.
