    If you’re driving, you shouldn’t be doing anything that distracts you from driving. Period.

        Messing with knobs is still a distraction. You’re simply arguing for lesser distractions when the point is that, if you’re driving, you should be focused on driving and not on buttons, knobs, screens, or phones. It’s literally the first lesson of driving and yet you’re pretending like there’s some safer way to be distracted. It’s a load of bollocks.

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

                    I’m an imaginary straw man that you made up in your head. It doesn’t go from being 72 degrees out to being freezing where you need to change your “heat controls” suddenly. Stop being disingenuous.
