Some appear to have been using the gadget as a stunt. Others may just have been just learning how to use the headset while out and about.
The new technology has prompted safety concerns, with the US transportation secretary reminding drivers they must pay attention at all times. The reminder was issued after one Vision Pro owner was filmed using the headset as he drove a car with assisted driving features.

The validation these people need from others is just unreal
Apple need to add feature "Blind Spot Alert" or "Blind Sport Monitor" to Vision Pro.
I understand the fascination about the Vison Pro . It's a new thing and people lpve showing off but like everything in life , people should do things wiith moderation. Besides it looks more like people want to burn their own eyeballs with so much usage. Ok. Jokes aside, I am team Apple all the way but doing things like driving and walking in with it…. Does anyone remember BirdBox? Some people decided to do the BirdBox challenge (and I'm taking about grown up people) . That's what it reminds me.
30-40 seconds is enough for a major mortal consequence
even 3 seconds is enough to cause a fatal collision
This is scary 😦! Give it 10 to 15 years and people will be just as addicted to these are they are to mobile phones of today!
Males ☕️
This Def a win marketing strategy, everyone talks about it, shares videos etc
We're doomed.
So this is how we start using futuristic devices huh

Tesla driver wearing a Vision Pro? A perfect combination. omg
That's probably how bummers felt when they saw us carrying phones everywhere, that's just a peak at Gen Alpha's daily routine
rip future, technology is going to doom us all, ai and its dangers
News 😅
People that use something like this in the car while driving are a special kind of bad person.
Nothing wrong with having in public. But driving or crossing roads with it is a different matter.
That's it… We officially dum
Reminds me of the people in WALL-E!
Now this looks like real zombie apocalypse.
I remember how the people were walking with Sony walkman those times, eventually this will evolve
I wouldn't pay over 3 thousand for that head set
The only safety issue is someone pulling it off their head and running away, it's a $3500 device that gives a thief the illusion that the person cannot see you because they are wearing it (they can)
00:38 how called song?
This is the exact same as when the airpods came out, people walking about with tic tacs in their ears so all it takes is time for society to adjust to the fact the future is officially here or almost getting to the point where VR/AR can be used on a daily basis
and people say misanthropy is unjustified
I'll use it in public once it's in a regular set of sunglasses
The only person that suits these is Kanye
Seems like not so far away dystopia future.
Makes driving while using your phone less dangerous. 😅
lacrimosa starts playing
Congrats they turned ya into real zombies
Why are they all wearing grey?
Il give it 3 months before there is a fatality wearing this driving should come with a prison sentence
It's not a thing about safety concerns it's a thing about boomers being afraid of change.
People are concerned because they're jealous that they can't afford one😅😂😅😂😂😂😂🎉
in school we were told not to make fun of these people
… hope he has a happy life 🙂
These people have the same energy as tiktokers that do dumb dances in the middle of public. Its just attention theyre looking for.
La razon por la que los hombres viven menos:
We need vision pro
Like we didn’t see this coming. If you wear those in public in LA, you will get robbed.
