"In a somewhat pre-emptive move Google is lobbying against state legislation that would ban drivers from using Google Glass while driving. I, for one, would like to see such legislation passed. There is enough distracted driving due to hand-held cell phones and Google Glass would just be just one more task for the brain to cope with.

    "You mean like driving while intoxicated is also undetectable?"

    That's basically true, a lot of money is made by the system by making the limits ever lower to the point of ridiculousness.

    If you read police blotter type local news, you'll see a cluster where people pulled over for bad driving or in a horrible accident inevitably blow a .2 or .3, but the profiteering stories where they incidentally busted someone are inevitably at the low end of the scale the .09 and so forth.
