Has anyone been pulled over for watching football while driving?

[SilverK20A3]

I have my D2G mounted on a car dock. Is it possible to get ticketed while watching football and driving if I'm not touching the phone?

Driver not allowed to see the tv screen !

Shouldn't you be driving while driving and not watching football? There's a handy new invention called the radio. You should check it out.

Yes you can be pulled over for that, but that cop must have a good eye if they know it's the game and no GPS.

that being said, please don't make such a dumb move and do that. The roads are dangerous enough with people not looking at their phones. You may be a good driver, but it's the other people you need to watch out for. Just get home safely and then you can watch the game.

I don't know if there's any federal laws making it illegal, but most states have laws prohibiting it.

I personally think it should be a suspended license situation.

I was gonna try it one time but then I realized I was busy doing something else, I can't remember what it was though............oh yeah now I remember, I was busy watching the road in front of me so I didn't die or kill anyone else.

You could keep the screen off and listen to the game if your local radio isn't carrying it.

Keep pants on ppl. I only tried it because it happens to be free this month and watching a live game on my phone is new to me. Wondered what it would be like. Turns out, the quality for the audio only stream is MUCH better.

I just let my 10 yr old sit on my lap and steer. Much safer

Yes the quality isn't too great, but it's better than nothing. Unless you have 4g, which you don't, the video is watchable, but expect some lag and definitely some choppiness.

I know watching a live game on your phone is new to you, but asking this type of question when you're supposed to be driving was indeed a silly question. There's no way we can stop you, but we definitely don't agree with it. Stay safe on the road and enjoy the NFL app!

Unless you have a slingbox .. But... personally I dont even think anyone should be allowed to talk on the phone while driving, unless hands free, and everytime I see someone talking on their phone I lay on the horn until they are out of sight...
