I think your perspective is off in terms of this valuable safety feature.

You say YOU were distracted (from what?), but from the car that is doing the braking perspective your attention was ATTRACTED to the braking in progress.

That is exactly the point of the device!

Distract you from fiddling with your radio, girl friend or cell phone and bring your attention to the braking vehicle in front of you.

I know there are some rules about that but I take personal safety seriously and will do what ever is required to keep me safe. If challanged I would quickly become a lobbyist to have that law changed and pay what ever the fine was in the mean time.

I'm thinking about short range cell phone jamming as well as a safety device due to risk from that inattention, also illegal but but its MY life I need to protect from all the dummies out there.
