On top of that, can we ban touchscreens in cars? Physical buttons give physical feed back, you can feel for the button you want and press it without taking your eyes off the road. A touchscreen gives you none of that, and means you have to look away. It’s somewhat mitigated when they put buttons on the steering wheel, but not all buttons can fit in that spot.

That’s, a damn good point.

Android Auto has a good interface for integrating its functions into a car touchscreen, but it’s not controlling anything “important”.

I agree that all the traditional car controls should be actual knobs and buttons. I rented a car once and they gave me a Tesla, and I couldn’t stand how all the controls were behind its touchscreen. I never felt the need to buy a Tesla, but that one experience turned me off from them entirely.

  The more I learn about Elon and how Teslas actually work, the more I feel justified in never falling for his hype train.
