I understand your concern, but I'd rather focus on the positive. With text to speech technology the driver doesn't need to take his/her eyes off the road.
So what _safety_ features would be possible with this?
It's understandable that you'd rather focus on the positive, but you have to respond to the negative.
Text to speech would be a good feature for this service, but it's not at the point where it's easy to compose tweets with license plate numbers and character restrictions yet.
In any case, this service would involve people taking their attention (one or more of mind, eyes, and thumbs) off of driving to send and receive tweets. Any safety features would have to outweigh this detriment.

IMHO, just another distraction to boost the number of car accidents...
Think more about safety and less about texting.
