Sure, and you are allowed to have GPSes in your field of view. http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/d12/vc27602.htm http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/d12/vc27602.ht

But the Glass is more than a GPS. It lets you read texts and emails. Reading texts and emails while you're driving will necessarily be more distracting than not doing so. And that's what's not allowed.
The law is written such that it's only allowed to be able to offer both an approved function as well as an entertainment/business function if there's an interlock that prevents anything but the approved functions from being used while the vehicle is in motion.

Should be easy enough to arrange. Also, implement a time readout for "current GPS Nav session" so the officer can verify there was no funny business going on.
- avalaunch 13y agoSo if a driver uses his cell phone as his GPS he's breaking the law? If so, that sounds like a law that needs to be revisited anyway.
