Please don't work on your BlackBerry whilst driving

Working on his BlackBerry while driving? Now there's an intelligent driver.

how reliable is this DISTRONIC PLUS (with PRE-SAFE Brake) system though?? What if it fails if you keep driving like this on the highway?? Will Mercedes be liable with this?

@topbanana188 you would get an instant fine and 3 points on your licence if you get caught with a phone in your hands while driving in the UK.

Note - you still have to steer the car. Put away your blackberry.

amazing technology. Personally i'd dark tint the windows so i could jerk off to pr0n while driving rather than work on a blackberry but to each his own.

is the steering wheel involve in the system???

[EliteSlayer542]

So everytime the car comes to a stop you have to hit resume? I'm debating If i should get the MB e-class coupe and this is a pricey option.

@Maqqx You are right my friend, it is not offered in the SLK. I forgot about that one. And by the way, DISTRONIC will also become available in the facelifted C-class that is coming soon (2011). Good luck!

[Maqqx]

@bertbraak what about the SLK I can't find any information about that?
