I'd happily stop smoking in cars as soon as people driving with only one hand on the wheel is banned.

However, a spider dropping down from the roof lining once caused me to completely forget I was trying to drive my car meaning I parked it in the rear end of the car in front, so are we to ban spiders?!?!?!;)

I hear you Phil! Same thing's happened to me except it was running round the centre part of the steering wheel. (Oh I didn't crash though, just looked mental emergency stopping and kicking poo out of steering wheel!)

Kerry once stopped and ran away from her car in the middle of a busy 3 lane crossroads because a wasp flew in her car. lol

Ban Kerry!

As i think FS mentioned, calress driving law is already out there and covers anything that distracts you from the job in hand and that should cover smoking, drinking, eating, using say nav, taking faxes, playing with your stereo/ipod/mp3/4 player, writing notes, reading the paper, reading a map, and generaly not concentrating. Then you have the next law up, driving without due care... it goes on.
