  1. using headphones or earphones connected to sound receiving or playback devices.
  2. for more than one hour straight without resting.
  3. for more than one hour straight without resting, but only on an urban road.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: using headphones or earphones connected to sound receiving or playback devices.

Driving with headphones or earphones connected to a device that receives or plays sound is prohibited because they take your attention away from driving. There are exceptions, such as driving lessons and road tests that require an intercom, or approved devices built into motorcycle helmets. Driving for more than one hour straight, however, is not prohibited.
