    That doesn't sound like they're making it SAFER, it sounds like they're making it more enticing by giving drivers an excuse to use their phones will driving. Big buttons and easier navigation won't solve the real problems that make texting etc. while driving worse than drunk driving. If they offered that here in the USA, I figure it will take less than 6 months for them to be sued by someone using those 'aids' to phone-driving. As it is, we have to have 'lawyer-screens' here, on in-car nav systems.

    And ditto that!

    Somedays it's not even worth chewing through the restraints...

    I should only have to LET the technology work for me. If I have to MAKE the technology work for me, it's not a tool - It's a boat anchor. And I've got better things to do than manage boat anchors, especially if I don't have a boat.
