Using Mobile whilst driving

I note that yesterday the driver of the HGV that caused a crash whilst using his mobile, killing an entire family, got 10 years in jail.  Well deserved.

However there is one aspect of that report that does concern me a little.  He was reported to be scrolling down a music play list whilst listening to music on his radio in the cab. The music presumeably coming via his mobile device.

I have noticed that many new cars today don't have the normal radio/disc player that we grew up with, but instead now have a digital receiver/player instead, and also receive their signal from the owners mobile device.

So does that mean that that situation that killed the unfortunate family will become more common not less?

I do apologise if Ive got the wrong end of the stick about these new "radios" fitted in new cars but I am concerned!

My son has just taken delivery of a new Toyota, - and it hasn't got a conventional radio in it. It requires connecting via blue tooth to a phone!  Its far too advanced for me!
