A study from the UK's Transport Research Laboratory showed that all drivers in the study had a critical reaction time degradation when interacting with Android Auto and Apple Car play. > "The increase in reaction time when interacting with either system using touch was higher than previously measured forms of impairment, including texting and hand-held calls". It's a small sample size N=20 but their conclusion was that interacting with these touch infotainment systems created a reaction time degradation that was 4x worse than the reaction time of a drunk driver (80mg of alcohol per 100ml). They followed up this study with a call for urgent shifting in the auto industry to voice controlled infotainment systems.
