JR,
NP, my wife wanted our daughter to learn how to drink coffee while applying
makeup and chatting on the phone all at the same time. I thought the GPS
unit was over the top, but as long as she has a nice quiet neighborhood to
practice in, it probably will be ok.

JR,
Where do you live? I am going to ask her to put her practice hours in
your neighborhood.

Geeez...a cell phone, gps, blabbing friends, blaring tunes...Hope your
insurance is paid up. Oh, and please tell us where she will be driving,
so we can get the hell out of the way.

Our youngest daughter will be turning 16 in Jan. My wife wants to give
her a GPS unit for the car. My wife's logic is she would be a safer
driver, if she didn't knew where she was going, and was not looking for
street names and addresses.

It seems to me that another electronic toy in the car is just another
thing to distract her from watching the road.

Does anyone have any experience with GPS and teenagers?

and

Most importantly, does anyone have any experience buying a handheld unit
that has both maps for city driving and nautical charts?

You forgot to teach her how to eat the Carls Jr. double cheeseburger
without getting food on her clothes!

I read that people were putting DVD players in the front console of
their car. That will be the next problem...best stay off the streets
when the 'soaps' are on.

You can watch "soaps" on a DVD? Is that what you do between posts?

TV, DVD, etc. are illegal if visible by the driver in many states, if
not all, but you already knew that, right?

The illegality of something does not mean it's not happening.

Sure, but that could be said about a lot of things. This was a response
to the discussion.
