Siri&#8217;s\u00a0sarcasm and wit was not appreciated by the test drivers. \u00a0When the brain is not fully focused on the road it causes drivers to miss stop signs, pedestrians and other cars while using voice technologies.\u00a0 The intent of these technologies is to be safety features but they are unintentionally causing greater levels of cognitive distraction.<\/p>\n<p>On a scale of 1-10, AAA compared voice technology systems made by different manufacturers, which were included in the vehicle.
