Comment One thing... (Score 1) 102

Even wearing headphones is prohibited in IL (and I expect many other states).

How would this Glass distraction, in front of your eye at all times, help you be a better driver? As far as I'm concerned this is even worse that texting on the road. It would be a great solution if we were concerned that taking our eyes off the road is the problem. Changing focus and distraction seems to be the issue, and I'm not sure how being bombarded with the location-aware reality overlay that is Google Glass will contribute to a decline in automotive accidents.

Unlike the movies, people don't steal cars every 2 blocks to ensure they aren't followed. ...not an international criminal mastermind with 30 years training in stealing cars.

Right. 30 years of training to bash/coathanger a window, and pop the ignition. More like 10 minutes. Only did it once, to my own vehicle. 10 minutes. I think *you* watch too many movies... Plus you wouldn't do it every 2 blocks. Just every time the Wireless Emergency Alert went off. LOL, that was the post I was responding to.
