Utterly irresponsible technology

I have a simple rule when it comes to what’s OK to do while driving: If you wouldn’t want your surgeon doing it while operating on your brain, don’t do it behind the wheel.

Period.

That’s why I’m appalled at Pioneer’s announcement of a dashboard system that keeps drivers connected to social networks and local searches while they’re driving.

It’s tough enough to keep people from texting while driving. Do we really need a system that gives drivers real-time Facebook and Twitter updates?
