I know women have done it. I just don't think it's a good idea safety wise, but you could. I had a woman who was a sales person. She would get off the freeway, attach herself to her hands free bra, and then get back on the freeway, and pump while driving for 15 or 20 minutes, get back off an an exit, take her stuff off, and keep going. So yes you can. Like cell phones, I suppose they're distracting, and so talking on your cell phone, pumping your breasts, and eating your lunch while driving... maybe not so safe.
