Driving ain’t what it used to be. In the past, you could get in your car and drive around to clear your head. Now your car is a practically a rolling Internet connection. To make this easier, Mercedes Benz will integrate Apple's voice recognition technology, Siri, into the A-class Drive Kit Plus. This will allow users to access their iPhone and apps through voice commands.

The system will transfer the phone’s screen to the car's system screen so that drivers can listen to music, update social networks statuses and send texts. Since interacting with Siri is all voice-activated, drivers should be able to keep their hands on the wheel. However, being that Mercedes Benz is such a stickler on safety, one can only hope they’ve also integrated extra distraction-preventing measures to keep drivers from getting too involved with their Apple assistant.
