Re: In Car Video!

Okay, more of a limit on mobility as opposed to blind spot. You don't turn your head much at all when talking on the phone. You become less aware of your surroundings. Viola, distraction. I think I've lost touch of the core argument here... Are you defending cell phone users? Or just stating cell phones aren't as bad as having a screen in the car?
Personally, I would have more trouble driving while talking on a cell phone than having a movie playing in the background. Glancing at the screen now and then to see what's going on is little more than checking out an attractive girl walking along the street. It takes my attention off the road - It still could cause an accident.
It all boils down to this: Want a tv in your car? Go for it. Talk on your phone, fine. Read and drive at the same time, more power to you. I catch you doing any of it and you better hope there was good reason for ignoring the road. I'm done. :locked:
