Well hopefully people are *smart* enough not to do that but in general that's not the case
Seeing a guy trying to figure out the idrive in his BMW as he's driving down Yonge Street doing 30km/h and slowing traffic down while he's wandering into the other lane is another problem.
Too many gadgets nowadays, people always on the go and need to get there as fast as possible and multitasking a bunch of things. Our minds aren't wired to multitask to begin with.

so, if I see a crime in progress, am I allowed to "break the law" to call the police?
or should I expect to get a fine in the mail after doing my moral duty and helping others?
------ I know this is extreme, but it's a fact for some of us who use hands free and see drunk drivers on the highways, or witness suspect behaviour.
I witnessed a guy last Friday night on the 407 driving while drinking a bud light. So under the new law, I potentially could have been punished for calling the OPP.

they passed that law in New York about 6 yrs ago...and at first the rates of use seemed to drop
but then they did another survey and saw the rate actually increased in the last 4 years.
