Making the rounds this overnight is a Google+ post from oneCecilia Abadie, who received a ticket for wearing Google Glass while driving. She puts it thusly:
A cop just stopped me and gave me a ticket for wearing Google Glass while driving!The exact line says: Driving with Monitor visible to Driver (Google Glass).
That's not actually why Abadie was stopped, it appears unless Google Glass caused her to break the speed limit. And folks are trying to argue that Glass falls under the exemptions for that particular California law anyway.
I think they're wrong, but I also think the discussion needs to be had.
Anyhoo, get used to seeing more stories like this. As with any new technology, there will be growing pains. We adapt as societies when new technologies become commonplace. And still very much in the early stages of wearables. And it's worth noting that Google Glass is very muchnot a consumer product yet.
