Snapchat's win instead diverts blame from these companies and requires responsible use of these technologies by the driver," Trigg said. Players are hoping that this lawsuit might set a precedent that could translate into Niantic reactivating all the game’s lost functionality while moving at driving speed. Additionally, Pokémon GO is not Snapchat. And truth be told, back when players could play Pokémon GO effectively when driving, it was often far more efficient to do so. But for now, I don’t think the law is clear enough where they think it’s safe to do that, and one somewhat similar court ruling in one state is not going to change that.
