No, you keep your eyes on the road, and use you're sense of touch to adjust the radio, temperature, etc. Hence the benefit of tactile knobs. Boy you really are somethin lol.

Oh, it’s you. First off, it’s “your”. You’re not to be taken seriously.

Second, using your “sense of touch” is still a distraction. You’re not focusing on the road if you’re trying to feel your way around your car. As mentioned before, you’re moving the goalposts attempting to argue a degree of distraction. I’m arguing that any distraction is a negative.

Yeah that's stupid, you need to be able to change your heat controls due to weather conditions, that's the reasons tactile knobs work.

[–] dpkonofa@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, because the weather conditions change suddenly while driving. You adjust everything before you start driving and you focus on driving while you’re driving.
