Ignoring the lawsuit for now...

Driver distraction is probably only going to get worse.

I wonder what it would take to accurately identify the driver and restrict phone features.

If phone proximity sensor(s) and a vehicle "driver" signal(s) could work.

Or maybe at some point governments will mandate all cars include a default, driverless mode?
