Keena, agree! Apparently her husband was sort of leaning over from the passenger seat and steering while she was driving and shaving.

Tricia, yeah, I could see it for those days I'd be waiting for kid at various places. Especially if they'd had alpha smarts back in those days.

Hey, I came out of the library Monday and saw the guy parked next to me with his laptop propped on something on his steering wheel. Must've been something like this. At the time I thought it was a great idea, because he was in the comfort of his car (the library was freezing) taking advantage of the library's wireless signal. Too bad I needed actual books. LOL. Maybe my hubby can make me one for those times when I'm sitting in the parking lot waiting for one of the kids...

You know, that's a rather delicate area to shave. I'd think one would want to pay close attention!

It's certainly not the brightest idea around.

With that said, I'm totally with Monica in the fact that I could really envision myself TRYING to use it during my lunch breaks, etc. Let's see...an hour a day, five days a week... Hmm... Where's that link again?

LOL

Monica, The girl I saw reading her textbook was driving with her knees.

And yes, Kathleen, I see lawsuits coming, though I suspect the manufacturer has "Do Not Drive while using" instructions, I'll bet they wouldn't always hold up. Or the maker would settle just to keep the bad press down.

Who ever created this, is now gonna lose a lot of money.... Idiotic idea for sure... I do one thing in my car and that is drive and watch the road.. Okay I have a little background music on.

Like I said, not while driving. :-) We have no texting law in VA. I've yet to figure out HOW in the world someone can text and drive...no wait, knees. It's all in the knees. *banging head on desk*

Monica, I can see where it'd come in handy, too, having been one of those moms.

But having watched a girl in the other lane, obviously studying for a final while she was driving (as we were driving past all the colleges on Hwy 81 to D.C. over one Christmas), I have to wonder if she'd had a steering wheel desk, she'd have been typing a term paper!

Ok, as a mom who has to sit and wait in the car while the kids are doing their choir deal, this is something would definitely come in handy. BUT, using while driving??? Insane.

Ah, but Kathy, look at the update on the woman driving while shaving. Could happen. :)

I think that's a joke. I came across it a while ago on Amazon, and got a big laugh reading the reviews.

Elen, I was thinking the same thing about the airbag.

Lucy, so, so true! Wanna bet people are also going to put their take-out lunches on it and eat while they drive?

Wow...some ideas do not need to be born. LOL

Oh, dear. That little writing surface doesn't look terribly impact-friendly either. Does it come with an airbag? Yikes!
