Link to the NSW legslation: https://roadsafety.transport.nsw.gov.au/stayingsafe/mobilephones/know-the-rules.html https://roadsafety.transport.nsw.gov.au/stayingsafe/mobileph... The relevant info is in the first table. I've just noticed the rules about making and answering calls and audio playing uses the term EITHER, as in Either in a cradle OR can be operated without touching. So it appears that drivers can touch the phone when making calls or playing audio when the phone is in a cradle or mount. If the device is used for GPS or speed monitoring then it can be hand-held.
