Google Glass Victory in the court by a California woman ticketed for driving while wearing Google Glass in traffic

A California woman driver Cecilia Abadie ticketed for driving while wearing Google Glass was cleared on the guilt

A California woman driver Cecilia Abadie ticketed for driving while wearing Google Glass was cleared on the guilt.

Cecilia Abadie was pulled over and given a ticket for speeding and wearing the smart spectacles while driving on 30 last October.

In October, Ms Abadie was pulled over by a California Highway Patrol officer for driving at 80mph (128km/h) in a 65mph zone on Interstate 15 in San Diego.

John Blair, the San Diego traffic commissioner, ruled that Cecilia Abadie was not guilty because there was no proof that the device was in use at the time.

Court Commissioner John Blair said he was dismissing the citation against Abadie, 44, on the grounds of a lack of proof that her Google Glass was turned on at the time.

“There is no testimony it was operating or in use while Ms Abadie was driving,” he said during the hearing.

Blair had said during the hearing that Google Glass “falls within the purview and intent” of the ban on driving with a monitor enacted by the California legislature.

The device is not yet available for sale to the general public, although the company is testing the product with the help of thousands of so-called “Explorers” who have been given early access to the technology. It is expected to come to market later this year.

“Glass is built to connect you more with the world around you, not distract you from it,” Google said in a statement.
