I don't see how you could possibly drive in modern traffic, constantly look at your temperature and voltage gauge, monitor your newly added air/fuel gauge read your text messages....and grab a drink all at the same time.
By the way, the lady in the big ass sedan that wiped out both my Xs parked in front of my house and flipped her car over on it's side was reaching over to grab her coffee mug that was, I assume, in a cup holder.
We can all see this thread is falling off the edge of usefulness....it happens here occasionally.
