Will Your Car Tell You To Put Down the Phone?

crimeandpunishment writes with this story from the AP: "We know it's dangerous to text while driving, or talk on a cell phone without using a hands-free device. What if our car knew it as well, and warned us about it? Our cars buzz and beep at us when our seatbelts aren't buckled ... now there are new applications in the works that could lead to a warning if we're driving with a cell phone in our hand."

Dumb. That's like saying the law makes bank robbery more dangerous.

Dummies say things like this all the time. "Fighting terrorism just makes the terrorists angrier." "Resisting Somali pirates only makes things more dangerous." Such dummies frequently go by another name: liberals.
