Driving down 111 yesterday heading for la quinta and there is a Mercedes E350 weaving all over the road and getting too close for comfort. Punched it to get buy it and saw a mid 50's lady putting on her makeup with both hands using her mirror probably steering with her knees.
Can't come fast enough. Easier to develop auto driving than fix stupid.
I agree. More and more people are treating driving like an inconvenience that gets in the way of everything else they want to do in a vehicle. I think more automation is becoming a necessity whether we like it or not.
Distracted driving is now the biggest cause of fatal accidents in BC in spite of a $368 fine for using a hand held device while driving. Automation is the only answer to this behaviour.
