What they really need to do is pass a law that prohibits talking in a moving vehicle. Yeah! Yeah! You know, I've seen so many wrecks that could have been easily avoided if the driver had simply not been talking to his passengers! And then we can follow up the un-enforceable no-talking law with automotive manufacturing laws that require cars to be manufactured with a sound-proof box around the driver's seat so that it's physically impossible for the driver to talk to anyone else (or reach into the other seat to set down or fetch a map, etc.). Of course, the car stereo will only be audible to the passengers and it'll be illegal to use a handheld stereo in the sound-proof box. Drive, drive and more driving. That's all they should be doing. And I guess they shouldn't be talking either, so we'll have to also have the automotive manufacturers build a device into the seat that gives the driver a mild electrical shock if they talk at all.
This whole thing is such utter garbage nonsense... it's bullshit all the way around, I'm just really amazed how people refuse to see it. > Whoa, freaky six degrees of separation.
