I've heard that there are other areas, like banking, when one needs an iPhone.

The dealer went on and on about how one can talk and ask Siri and get info etc etc and I could not interject, from the back seat, that while the driver is engaged in all this, they can be rear ended..

These days, when I am waiting at a traffic light, I am watching cars approaching behind me and as they are getting close, I inch forward a bit, just in case the driver in the last minute realizes that they have to stop..
