Question: In Quebec, distracted-driving (hand-held phone) typically carries demerit points of:

Answer options:

  • 0
  • 2 ✅ 3
  • 4

Correct answer: 3

Explanation: Under the Quebec Highway Safety Code, using a hand-held electronic device while driving results in an immediate fine and the assessment of 3 demerit points on your driving record. Choosing 0, 2, or 4 points is incorrect because these values do not align with the standard penalty designated for this specific distracted-driving infraction. The underlying SAAQ rule prohibits drivers from using, holding, or looking at any portable device while operating a vehicle to ensure continuous focus on the road. Knowing the exact demerit point values for common violations like distracted driving is crucial for passing the SAAQ knowledge test, as safety-related penalties are heavily tested.
