Re: How about some common sense???

It is already a law, at least in MO that a screen capable of displaying motion cannot be in view of the driver. I can only assume this would apply to cell phones with video.

My understanding is that laws like that only apply to movies and broadcast television.

This is why GPS systems (with real-time map locations) and rear-view cameras are fine.

Letting the driver watch TV is clearly a hazard, but a rear-view camera is a good thing, especially for certain vehicles that otherwise can't have them (box trucks, dump trucks, semis, buses, RVs).
