I fully agree with you that there should be a law against using Mercedes
vehicles while driving. It makes perfect sense to do that (in your world).

> Anecdotal but I've seen enough anecdotes to believe these laws are needed.

Nobody said that driving doesn't *already* include handling a zillion
distractions, so we all agree that only people who are too stupid to handle
those distractions should be driving. 

That's why we have a "driving test" for all drivers after all.

If they're too stupid to handle one more distraction out of hundreds (maybe
thousands) then they shouldn't be driving a vehicle, Mercedes or otherwise.

In reality, there should be a law against giving stupid people a license.

In fact, insurance companies always gave me a "good driver" discount and a
"good student" discount because I'm not too stupid to handle distractions.

If someone has NOT always received both those discounts their entire
driving life, then they are (by definition) too stupid to be in this
conversation.

Moving forward, please append the sig with whether or not you have a good
driver discount and (when you were going to school) a good student one.

-- 
Not stupid so I can handle distractions, as evidenced by my "good driver"
and "good student" discounts my whole life.
