Actually, there is something wrong with that: taking your eyes off the road while driving is the very definition of a distracted driver.

Death and vomit are two things that Tesla cars create. Who cares about classiness, we’re anonymous screen names on the internet.

Also, you still haven’t addressed or refuted my points regarding physical feedback and muscle memory, or regarding my challenge to any Tesla owner to turn their AC on and off while driving ten times in a row, which literally no one would be able to do.



Someone should sell a tactile dash overlay kit for people like you. I’m half serious... if done well, some silly people would buy it to overcome the perceived problems you think you see.

Maybe it could also make “vroom, vroom” noises for people who feel that the absence of the feedback of engine noise poses a serious danger. I’ve talked to hundreds and hundreds of ICE car drivers and many of them think this is a serious concern.

Oh and block off the rear view mirrors because they might distract from the road ahead... according to your line of thinking.

And it could move the speedometer display down behind the steering wheel where the driver would have to bob their head to see the readout. But at least it would be centered like an old ICE car.

Your points are ridiculous.


>block off the rear view mirrors because they might distract from the road ahead... according to your line of thinking.

What? Not true. Looking at a rear view mirror is still a form of keeping your eyes on the road and thus is not distracted driving. Looking at an LED screen is, by default, distracted driving.

Renounce ur faith in Elon dude, ur faith will not be rewarded.
