Hopefully he is charged with the texting and driving crime. It is pretty strict in NY.
But he wasn't texting. He was distracted. The texting law is a weird one that suggests that the distracted law has no teeth or that texting is not a distraction. NY has always had a no distracted driving law and that's what applies here.
Yeah the UK law is that you cannot use a mobile phone while driving, no exceptions etc, just straight up nope.
So no hands free device support at all?
What about cars with bluetooth built in?
hands free is allowed, but has to be the type of system where you don't need to interact with your phone, i.e. putting the phone on loudspeaker is not allowed iirc
How is that different than anything else? Most US cars themselves are also mobile phones. Can you not have OnStar in the UK?
I guess because you don't look at the phone, so not distracted as much, and just press a button? who knows ahaha...
And never heard of OnStar?
OnStar is the satellite mobile phone system built into every GM vehicle. The car calls home regularly, can be used as a phone, etc.

It would be neat to build a bluetooth display that is similar to google glass, just so that people can go about their normal business, but still enjoy the game.

You'd get out your phone when you found one.

Ok so just a hud so you can see what is around you.
And phone to capture.
Eh I could see a market.

And then you develop a full AR system that costs quite a bit more that would allow you to throw as well. I was just thinking of something more inexpensive so that Ninatic (SP?) doesn't have to deal with legal battles, etc. from people getting hurt.

If google glass was still around and didn't cost $1500 for the basics, I could actually see this being a really neat match up.
Would be an awesome thing to play with for sure.
I wonder how the Samsung 3D display would work with this. I haven't used one before.
I wonder if you could put your phone onto the headset, and just walk outside with that on.

Then people would really get hit by a truck when crossing the street

Maybe
But my idea with the Samsung VR would be to just take in the surounding as a live image, and overlay the pokemon onto that. As it does with your phone now anyways.
Thinning out the gene pool isn't the worst thing that could happen would it?

Fix those issues that modern medicine has caused.

Survival of the fittest: there is a national news item about some guy from @Mike-Davis's neck of the woods crashing his car playing.

Will there be Siri integration?
Hey Siri, next time I'm near a pokemon, throw a pokeball at it. -
@Minion-Queen yep, I work in a town where sound was first added to motion pictures, and we make the national news because of some idiot.

If it didn't make you stop and do the Team Rocket dance sequence to initiate a Pokeball toss I wouldn't want them to develop the technology.
