So, how will they determine a person is driving?  My car won't allow access to certain functionality when car is moving, not even for the passenger.  Will the same apply for passengers using cell phones?
I understand and appreciate the problem, not confident we'll get a good solution.

Well they could activate it when you have the engine is running or the electric motors are switched on. I don't think it's enough to activate it just because the car's not moving. I see a few hold ups  at traffic lights because someone is texting in their phone. 

I think a combination of GPS location using Apple Maps (to determine if you are simply stopped at an intersection), speed sensing and smart software could be used in the short term. In the long term, the government should pass a law making bluetooth mandatory in all cars as a safety feature. With all cars having bluetooth, if your phone is paired to the car, you would only have voice controls whereas all other phones in the car would be considered passenger phones and be fully usable. Of course it could be defeated by turning bluetooth pairing off on your phone but I think most people would use hands-free bluetooth pairing just for the convenience.

Karma's a bitch

That retina, perfect colour rendering screen though...8D

For my usage case, I would rather have the extra USB-C port than a dedicated charging port. If you need it, Griffin has a solution. Let's move on.

We do not want to pull out a dongle every time to connect to a damn speaker system or our headphones.

You use the headphone jack for "a damn speaker system"?  

You've never heard of desktop computer speakers?
