While everyone is spending thousands on EBay for the XBox 360, you'll soon be able to spend thousands on a car from Nissan (http://blog.wired.com/cars/) with an integrated XBox into the dashboard.

Yes, this is a concept car, so it remains doubtful that a car would ever sell with an Xbox integrated into the dashboard. However, since DVD players and entertainment systems are already standard fare for the rear passengers on some SUVs and minivans, adding a game console would be a logical progression.
If you thought talking on a cell phone and driving was bad....what about playing Grand Theft Auto and driving?

I read a book one time while driving.

I hope they don't have to remove the engine to find a place for the power brick.

Tee hee. :)

Screw GTA and driving, what about playing Burnout and driving? That would be far more dangerous, I think.

I tried reinacting Hot Coffee while driving.

Even if it's your wife, it's still a ticket kids.

Let that be a lesson to you.

As long as your shunts and takedowns are taking place on the screen and not on the freeway, go for it. Or you could throw a cube in there with some mario kart and drop banana peels out your window.
