I beleave it is illegal to drive with them in view of the driver. That is why the ones that come out of the roof are behind the drivers seat. You can have the in dash and operate them while parked but they can not be on while driving.

I read somewhere that it is illegal in ALL states to drive while a DVD or TV is playing UP FRONT in the driver's area. It's ok if they are in the back seat area though. Most DVD's are supposed to be set up so that they will not operate while the car is driving but supposedly this is easily bypassed and a lot of installers perform the bypass while they are doing the installation.
