"In a somewhat pre-emptive move Google is lobbying against state legislation that would ban drivers from using Google Glass while driving. I, for one, would like to see such legislation passed. There is enough distracted driving due to hand-held cell phones and Google Glass would just be just one more task for the brain to cope with.

    If driverless cars had a 5/10/20-year head start in making it into the mainstream, would distracted driving still be a concern of the population or lawmakers? I have to think we would have moved on to other things by then.
