    This just in: old man yells at high tech car

    He’s clearly never driven a modern vehicle, as half his complaints are safety features that are common on anything past 2015, the rest is the unwillingness to RTFM.

    I will agree on one thing though. The lack of a screen in front of you does get annoying.

      Manufacturer’s obsession with replacing physical knobs and switches with onscreen controls needs to die. Yes it’s cheaper for them, but not good for driving safety.

      Similarly the insistence on sucking data from your phone.

        Yeah, I really hope some laws come out requiring basic functionality to be enabled through a physical knob or button press.
