It's hardly a distraction, as it's so far over on the passenger side of the car. Besides, I turn the brightness down to zero so I can't even see anything.

It's more of a distraction than obstraction. You can't concentrate (full attention) on driving if you have a device you are looking at even once in a while. This will cause a delay in reaction.

When I drove with it, I never once felt like it was hiding any part of my view. Not to say a cop wouldn't give me a ticket though. Okay, I'm going to have to have a poll and ask several cops for their opinion!
