    Touch screens are great in cars! For one purpose. The navigation. The touchscreen should only display navigation and function as a keyboard to search it, and only while the car is stationary. Everything else should have a physical control, at bare minimum as “backup”

      No, no they aren’t. If I have to stop to use a control in a car, it’s bad design.

      So far 15 18 23 people have shown they don’t know how to drive.

        Ok, lets hear your idea for how to navigate while driving. Please don’t say voice control, because voice control rarely works as needed.

          Passenger does it? Have a sensor to see if there is a passenger, then allow it.

            And of course, we can rely on the universally true mutual exclusivity of always having a passenger when we need to navigate, and never needing to navigate when we don’t have any passengers. As constant as the north star, that one.

              If you need to do navigation, you stop your car. If you have a passenger, he or she can do it while you are driving. It’s not that hard
