Did you actually watch the video? It clearly shows the driver being distracted by controls on the touch screen to "share" media with a backseat passenger. That's a terrible design that could easily lead to deaths.
- BoorishBears 6y agoFirst off, it doesn't let you share media or most of the more advanced functions if the car is in any form of motion. Second... are you kidding me?! A driver deciding to look down at their screen to share media while driving would be blamed... on the infotainment, is that a joke? By that logic you're also allowed to look down at your cupholder and count the crumbs that have accumulated, that's a terrible design and the cupholder should be mounted at your sightlines. - Normally I'm in the "putting screens in is adding unnecessary temptation" camp, but please. Personal culpability is still a concept. MB kept all the stalks that make sense, they kept the steering wheel buttons, they kept physical buttons for stuff specific screens. They did fine for the parameters they're playing with, which is "Tesla has made not sticking a giant touchscreen in your car not seem futuristic".
