Nothing... why are you in such a rush that you need to embark upon your trip
before you know where you're going? Just as 'nobody' talks on the cell phone
while driving, 'nobody' will try to program the trip minder while driving.

If you are unfamiliar with an area, the smart money is on programming the
device BEFORE setting out....
> 3) What about the scary fact of pulling over is some crappy neighborhood.
After you enter a scary neighbourhood is the wrong time to think about
programming the destination.

Whenever a device is made that is "idiot proof", society breeds better
idiots..... like the ones that want to program navigation computers whilst
driving.....

The real causes of injury and death are lapses in attention, lapses in
judgement or a failure to understand some very basic concepts of physics.
These are all attributed to the human condition and the blinders that so
many people seem to wear ("I am too important to adhere to rules and
convention"). What you are after is one more chance to qualify for a
Darwin.....
