RE: Navigation lockout
yeah, I think the idea of another driver out there paying less attention to the road is a good thing!
Stick with the factory settings. If you are ever in an accident they will have a great excuse to take very cent you have!

RE: Navigation lockout
Why, thank you Orion for that most erudite and persuasive argument against becoming one of the denizens of navigating mustang owners careening down the highway. I gather from the general tone of your post that you are the type of driver who has a checklist of things to accomplish before allowing the car wheels to roll so as not to pay "less attention to the road": tuning the radio to your favorite easy listening station, turning off the traction control, setting the fan and temperature controls, turning off your cell phone. And so on. I am comforted by the knowlege that once you do begin your journey, with your hands at 10 and 2 on the steering wheel and driving the speed limit, your eyes and hands don't stray from their positions long or often. I am gratefulfor your single-minded devotion to hypervigilant driving because in the great circle of life you make up for my lack of attention while driving as I fiddle with the nav unit in my car. I devote the next song on my Ipod (which often sits distractingly on the lap of my girlfriend who often sits distractingly in the passenger seat of my car while I drive) to you, sir! Highway to Hell, by AC/DC.

Seriously, I think it's perfectly legitimate to either enter directions yourself if you are stopped in traffic, or to have a passenger enter directions while you are driving. What's the bfd?Sorry, don't have an answer to your question, but just wanted to point out those two scenarios in which it would be perfectly safe to enter navi info while driving.

Watching a DVD while driving is just a bad idea!
I guess you're not opposed to women talking on cell phones while driving!
