"And, under the heading "Multitasking", the FBI said that "bad actors will be
able to conduct tasks that require use of both hands or taking one's eyes off
the road which would be impossible today". That raised the prospect that
suspected criminals would be able to fire weapons at pursuing police cars."

Drivers are apparently already quite capable of applying lipstick, shaving, and
updating spreadsheets in rush-hour traffic, I'm not seeing any new threats
here?
