Too Much Government

This is yet another thing government does not need to be involved with. They do too many things already, which are incredibly invasive and cost money we do not have. I say, no further!
Yeah, I agree with you, but you are using that kind of Logic based on a safety issue?

Look, if you were operating your own vehicle on a private roadway with no other citizens around, and no possibility of causing harm while you are distracted, the...

not to sure about this

i mean this is a good thing and a bad thing. i think would definitely reduce car accidents. do i think it would reduce it enough for people to notice? No not at all. people are still goin to do it.

These are proposed GUIDELINES for automakers the administration is outlining, and not legislation. At least that is what the supplied link in the article is stating.

http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/02/16/us-usa-aut ... »

So you have the Obama administration that wants to restrict certain practices, Congress which has shown no interest in restricting them and automakers...well I am sure everyone knows their position.

This is going nowhere at least for the moment...
