Huge touchscreens are a cheap way to avoid the expense of designing an ergonomic dashboard. Manufacturers don't care that they're a UX nightmare, ruin night vision, or take the driver's attention away from the road. They just care that they're cheap, and give salespeople a "feature" to point out.
- blaser-waffle 7y agoBingo. I think a flat touchscreen is something of a cop-out. If I'm driving at 80kph or higher I don't want to have to look at a screen, I want to feel for a knob.
- johnbrodie 7y agoWith all the regulation around cars and driving already, I'd love to see regulation around controls. It makes 0 sense to me to ban cell phones because they are distracting, but then allow giant touch screens in the car with no analog dials/switches for common features.
