    If you read the article this is specifically about things needed to operate the car. Radios and AC or whatever is fine, but car manufacturers are starting to move things actually needed like turn signals into touch controls, and that is not okay.

        Yeah, thank Tesla for that one. Because of course it was Tesla.

          Seems like a few countries should go over their laws again and prohibit those models from being sold. I don’t know what else would be effective

          Tesla is very confident their customers won’t need steering wheel anymore soon, so they went ahead and fuck the steering wheel even though the autopilot can’t work in all circumstances yet.

      Yes touch controls, but the comment I replied to mentioned touch screens (so usually the centre console), which only contains thing you don’t really need to manage while driving.

        The comment you replied to also specifically said “controls needed to operate a car.”
