Can you talk on the phone while driving in Minnesota?

I have plans with a friend I haven’t seen in a while tonight. I need to make dinner reservations so we’re not stuck waiting for a table for an hour, but I’m on my way to work. Can I make a call while driving in Minnesota?

Who wants to get stuck waiting when you’re hungry? Dinner reservations are the best.
However, you cannot talk on the phone while driving in
Minnesota
 unless you can do so hands-free.
Hands-free dialing is easiest with voice assistant or single-touch activation. But if you need to Google the name and phone number of a restaurant first, that’s too much contact with your phone while driving. Instead, you should pull over and begin the call before getting back on the road.
When you’re done driving, another helpful way to use your phone is to download the
