+1.
The AAA are suggesting/would like that touchscreens should be disabled whilst driving because of their proven distraction.

Sorry for getting a “Head “of myself there

I’m not usually a Nanny but I would fully agree. Touchscreens without ACC are a hazard.

I haven't read their full report, but I thought the gist of it was that typical vehicle infotainment systems are dangerous because they are slow and unintuitive to use, not simply because they happen to be touchscreen operation. For example they were quoting figures of up to 48 seconds for programming a simple nav destination in some vehicles! I also believe they were suggesting that only specific high-demand functions should be locked out while driving, regardless of the UI. Maybe there was another report specifically on the use of touchscreens?
TBH is was a passing comment in a WP piece about living with the pad in a Model 3 which I’m sure you’ll find interesting.Peteski wrote: ↑Fri Aug 03, 2018 3:07 pmI haven't read their full report, but I thought the gist of it was that typical vehicle infotainment systems are dangerous because they are slow and unintuitive to use, not simply because they happen to be touchscreen operation.

And yes it relates to the UoU research you mention. Regardless, though, of the detail it’s clear the operation of pads and driving at the same time are incompatible. But maybe it’s just passing debate re a technology that will before long be itself replaced. Whether what replaces it is any less distracting remains to be seen.

Maybe improved, reliable voice control is the way to go, assuming owners a willing to learn the script.

I’m sure that’s the next toy but would question whether, like the known distraction of making phone calls, it is any less dangerous.Mistertoad wrote: ↑Fri Aug 03, 2018 4:53 pm Maybe improved, reliable voice control is the way to go, assuming owners a willing to learn the script.
All hypothetical as big bother will be doing all the driving.

I think a lot of it depends on the ergonomics, just as it does with physical buttons. I don't have a problem with the touchscreen in the Tesla because it's so easy and quick to use. Of course you wouldn't want to be texting on the screen while driving, but things like selecting music and nav are so simple that you don't get unduly distracted. I've spent much longer messing with crappy sluggish UIs in other cars, with or without touchscreens. Thanks for the link too, I'll give that a read.Dandock wrote: ↑Fri Aug 03, 2018 4:47 pmTBH is was a passing comment in a WP piece about living with the pad in a Model 3 which I’m sure you’ll find interesting.Peteski wrote: ↑Fri Aug 03, 2018 3:07 pmI haven't read their full report, but I thought the gist of it was that typical vehicle infotainment systems are dangerous because they are slow and unintuitive to use, not simply because they happen to be touchscreen operation.
