Sadly, it's really about people/drivers taking responsibility for their skills (or lack thereof). Each of the devices simply removes another bit of responsibility and we'll have more drivers blindly driving off cliffs because the gps told them to.
Of course, if you can't be trusted but you still get to drive anyway...you'll only hurt others...so as a defensive measure, I think these are good because they should lessen the chances of me being hurt by a stupid person.
But still doesn't address the fact that there are people who shouldn't drive, or drive vehicles they shouldn't be trusted with, who are out there...and continue to be allowed to do so. (like 80yr olds driving RVs the size of rock-tour busses with NO ADDITIONAL LICENSING REQUIREMENTS).
