I know the display looks cool and all but this doesn't make driving with a phone any safer. You're still distracted. It's no different to just having your phone

I know the display looks cool and all but this doesn't make driving with a phone any safer. You're still distracted. It's no different to just having your phone on the windscreen.
Even where I live (Tasmania, Australia) I'm fairly sure there is either a proposal or already a law banning even hands free devices, because they are seen as just as dangerous. This device is going to be illegal to start with.
The only two thing I see as being feasible from a safety point of view for cars is either some sort of augmented reality for lane guidance and navigation, or your phone giving you direction via voice (which they already do).
- aianus 12y agoWhen I did driver training they taught us that being lost is a major contributor to accidents. I am very skeptical that I would be safer and less distracted while squinting in the distance for street signs than I would be having a quick glance at my windshield mounted phone with GPS.
- thomasfoster96 12y agoI would agree to an extent with that, but I guess with street signs you are still looking outside the car as opposed to inside it.
