Default Unsafe Car Feature

In today's Daily Sun, auto section--there was a column about touch screens on cars

The author feels they are unsafe, because the driver must take their eyes off the road in oder to operate certain features such as radio and a/c

Its amazing some states will give a driver a ticket for texting while driving but not for fiddling a touch screen

In my opinion there is not real difference--its distracted driving

The author advise is to tell a dealer , "you would buy their car if it didn't have a touch screen"
