I can see where in some instances it would be great, but I've also seen it be a distraction. There's a couple that used to ride with us that would wear them, and you could always tell when he was talking to her, because she'd be adjusting to volume or something, her speed would drop WAY down, and she'd drift all over the lane. I really don't think she was even aware of it; I think it's much like when someone's driving and really involved in a cellphone conversation.
