Where do you draw that line? Radios? Heat and A/C controls? Maps? GPS? Manual transmissions? Hot joggers? The point is, anything can be a distraction while driving. Obviously the safety of other drivers is important, but lets not get too socialist here. The next step for the UK is banning cars entirely.
