UK Says Apple Watch Can Not Be Used When Driving - How Long Until US States Follow Suit?

Being caught using an Apple Watch while driving will carry the same penalty as using a mobile phone, the Department for Transport (DfT) has confirmed.

Apple announced the release of its latest technology with users able to check messages, make calls and surf the web from their wrist. It'll go on sale from 2015, costs upwards of £220 and gives traffic officers the unenviable task of enforcing existing laws to prevent misuse.
