Time for a law to be passed that kills off this bad idea permanently.

The main cause of fatal accidents is driver distraction. Anything that adds to it is moving in the wrong direction.

They should also ban the use of tablet computers in place of proper displays and controls in vehicles.

With governments (of all alignments) in the pockets of, or otherwise under the influence of, the very large corporations whose advertising would stand to benefit from this, I have only the following to say: Good luck with that.

That’s not enough. Amazon tablets started with ads only on Lock Screen and startup. Those are also not ok
