They use smartphone at home, in car, in restaurants, in the toilet, in bed - the one place it is hard to use their life support system is on a motorbike. They need to have the link broken and concentrate on something else for a while instead of checking their phone 3000 times a day.

May also give them a feel for the weather and how its sometimes hot and sometimes cold, and sometimes the road gets wet and then its not so grippy etc. Wrapped up in their PCP 'handbag car'** fug-boxes with their infotainment (another word for 'total distraction system') poor things haven't a clue what is happening in the weather department.

( ** handbag car, small motorised skate board type car like Fiat 500 or Mini, although a modern Mini is 3x as big as the old mini but with less room inside - how did they do that ? )
