I just hope they never end up on my path.

My "distracted driving " comment pertains to day or night. Electronics aren't the blame. Just like cell phones aren't to blame for texting and driving. We've all seen it and done it runniing along at 30, 40,50 mph+ changing screen panels, views etc on our graphs. As lakes get more crowded and availability of these units are more readily available at lower costs. It's something we need to be aware.
