So on one hand the PO-PO want less distracted driving and one the other ( from Autos Editor) next two posts the people want to be distracted and Buick are going to help.
Personally I don't want anything of these gadgets in my car except, maybe just maybe, a sophisticated Bluetooth that is built in to the car and does all the phone book stuff and voice stuff...and I only want that if it is a standard fitting.
I wonder if the way to reduce distracted driving would be to: ( in no particular order)
Reengineer roads to be more dangerous... reducing radius curves , get rid of crash barriers, raise speed limits
Get rid of DUI limits and kiddy seats. Ban ABS and ESC.
get rid of automatic transmissions and power steering.
Perhaps reduce the performance of modern tires.
I was going to say get rid of drivers Ed but then I realized that would make no difference.
