Exactly and thats why Face ID is terrible compared to Touch ID! Added steps/fidgeting with your phone to just get to the point of unlocking it; a unsafe UX step backwards! Robot cars are the answer, yet many innocent non-robot car drivers will perish at the sake of AI car progress. Progress in this instance will be murder!

> Exactly and thats why Face ID is terrible compared to Touch ID! How would TouchID help in this case? Concerning AI drivers, a lot of innocent non-robot people are dying because of driving right now. I am unconvinced that more people would die. Of course the road ahead is still long.

  When I grab my iPhone 8 in any instance the phone opens instantly. Now if Im a dumb driver texting which is millions and now have Face ID .. i have to grab my phone...look at it and swipe up vs. the one step mentioned; grab it while not looking at it and it's opened. One step without a distraction from the road vs. three steps that make you focus your face/attention more on your phone then the road!

    iPhone has "driving in the car" detection, afaik it only stops you from receiving texts but maybe they should go further and don't even let you unlock it (you can always dismiss it by saying that you are a passenger). Anyways this is hardly a hardware issue, I think that punishment for texting while driving should be way more severe. Why not do it the high-school way and confiscate the cell phone? You can grab it later at a police station or pay for shipping if you are not a local.

If you're behind the wheel there is no reason to be on the phone whatsoever. If it's that important you can pull off to the side and face/touch/swipe away.

  Ummmm tell that to the millions of people who continue and will continue to do so! There's a huge problem and just telling all the millions to stop isn't doing jack! Thus, as technologists we need to come up with solutions until we have 100% bullet proof robot cars owning our roads. Face ID is a step backwards and im sure causing those iPhone owners with Face ID to get into more accidents. Their face/attention shouldn't be diverted from the road to unlock their phone. Every time I bring this up here the solution ppl say here is they shouldn't be texting in the first place.. but newsflash as you can see from this article you can tell them all day long and yet they'll continue to do so.

    I'm not telling everyone. I'm telling you to stop doing it. BTW, your phone is locked because it has detected you're going faster than 20mph. And rather than take that as the big clue to pay attention you continue to bypass the big ass warnings it's throwing at you. Put the fucking phone down!

      What how do you know I am one of the millions. That's a rich assumption! I am technologist ...looking to solve this problem because no matter how you phrase it they will keep doing it!
