Google sets roadblocks to stop distracted driver legislation

23 Jun 2014 • reuters.com

Some eight U.S. states are considering regulation of Google Glass, a tiny computer screen mounted in the corner of an eyeglass frame. Law enforcement and other groups are concerned that drivers wearing the devices will pay more attention to their email than the road, causing serious accidents.

They should be concerned.  Drivers wearing Google Glass is a terrible, terrible idea.

Google is lobbying officials in at least three U.S. states to stop proposed restrictions on driving with headsets such as Google Glass, marking some of the first clashes over the nascent wearable technology.

Bad Google.  If they didn't have such damn good search I probably wouldn't use any Google products these days.
