Actually this is common behavior, and also sad in a very frightening
way. To be distracted by various visual and audible devices while
driving no longer appears to be an issue of concern for most motorists.
Automakers even offer such devices as either standard or optional
equipment. Computers with keyboards that slide out of the dash are
becoming an increasingly popular option. People attach radios and GPS
units to their windshields without any thought at all to the attendant
loss of a clear and unobstructed view through the windshield. Indeed,
almost all such devices mounted in that manner are illegal almost
everywhere in the United States.
