The National Transportation Safety Board made a rather extreme recommendation today when they reached out to ALL US states to ban all non-driving related use of “personal electronic devices” even of the hands-free variety. Although they were pretty specific about wanting to ban the use of phone calls, text messages and updating Facebook while on the road, the NTSB was still pretty vague in what they deemed “driving-related.” Navigation. Pandora. Augmented reality.
The NTSB cited several studies that showed even hands-free device use is enough to distract the driver cognitively, leading to fatal car crashes.
