Starting this Sunday, Georgia drivers will no longer be able to hold phones while driving. We were curious about which other activities have been considered unsafe while driving. A little digging revealed that ever since humans sat behind the wheel, they've found reasons to take their eyes off the road — and at some time and place in American history, laws have been proposd to ban just about all of them. One of the first distractions? The car radio. Virginia Prescott gives a brief history of driving distractions.

Predictions are that the new distraction will be looking for hidden police on the Waze app — so you won't get busted for distracted driving.
