GM moves on with in-car Facebook app
Feds slam driving distraction, but firms say technology is legal, safe
General Motors Co. still plans to roll out its new OnStar feature that allows drivers to listen to Facebook messages and update their status, despite pointed criticism from Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood.
OnStar President Chris Preuss said the company is confident in the safety of the feature after conducting driving tests and has no plans to drop it. The application can also be extended to other social networking sites like Twitter."Not only is it safe — all things relative in the vehicle — it's actually a benign activity," Preuss said.
