A while back, I remember reading that the number 1 distraction while driving
that leads to accidents is changing a CD or cassette tape.

Wow. The UK really _is_ The Nanny State. :-)

Via The Independent.

[snip]

A smoking ban for drivers is to be considered by the Department of Health in
a bid to cut the number of deaths from crashes.

Road safety officers from councils around the country are to meet transport
officials to discuss a ban on smoking while at the wheel. A similar ban on
using a mobile phone while driving is already in place.
