    the EU is already passing legislation to require core functionality isn’t hidden behind a touch screen.

    good public transit is more likely to happen and I’d put my money on subscription based self driving taxis.

      Yeah i have hated it for years My personal car is old and has buttons for everything but still a touch screen if I want it.

      My work car is like dealing with an ipad to change the volume etc. It’s not safe

        My BYD has a decent mix. It has a volume knob on the steering wheel which you can press to mute, and a previous/next button.

        If you want to mess with your playlist though, you use the touchscreen. You’re not supposed to do that sort of thing while driving.

          I’m having such a Baader-Meinhof effect with those BYD’s

          Where I live its essentially a small country town despite being a capital city.

          I had never heard of them and saw one last week on the road and then I saw an add for them at the airport and three since I went interstate yesterday and now seeing it mentioned here.

          Edit

          To add to this watching the footy and its there in a shirt
