I'd agree with this, somewhat. I know that some people are multi-taskers
and others aren't. I am, but (sadly) my wife is NOT. Your test would
result in my being given permission (in advance) to use a cell phone while
driving. However, I don't think this should actually be done. It would be
a logistical nightmare. The lines at the DMV are already DAYS long. -Dave
