"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.

...After all, in and of itself, it isn't illegal to read a map while you are driving.
uh, yes it is illegal if you are not driving safely. it's called distracted driving, and the police officer that pulls you over will cite you if he/she thinks you were distracted while driving. if you are in an accident and were reading a map, it's your fault, plain and simple. distracted driving. the name says it all.
you need to pay attention to driving while driving. yes, i know it's a tall order, but we as a community of people around you that may be killed by your driving, would like you to put the fckn map down and drive. if you get lost, pull over and read the map.

What is the value of misquoting me by selectively trimming my words down to remove the very point you then proceed to re-iterate? You haven't added anything new to the discussion.
