text: While being in the car and having your phone on you, you are responsible to know when it is an appropriate time to use it. If you are lost and need to find a way to get home, you can easily pull up maps and navigate yourself. If you need to use the phone to make a phone call in the car you should be able to, just appropriately and safely. Although, using your phone in the car while driving is very dangerous and can lead to an accident. It is still important that you have your phone on you on all times in case of an emergency and use it accordingly to time. You shouldn't use your phone while driving instead, use it when you have stopped at a red light.
