[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1801077, member: 396914"] This would be fun to test in court. I recently rented a car with a digital display and it was passing messages to me through the interface all the time--the screens cycled through time/distance to go, fuel status, fuel economy, engine status, environmental data, etc. Under the Canadian law, if I looked at the interface, which also showed the speedometer, I would be in violation of the law. And I suspect at night that there was the 'blue glow' exactly as on a smartphone, so a watching cop would think I was violating the law. Lawmakers often write laws that make no sense. (Frankly, the majority of laws make no sense.) [/QUOTE]
