    I don’t adjust anything unless I’m stopped. Red light, stop sign, etc. Also, at this point, I can reference all that stuff without looking at the screen so, even if I needed to, I don’t have to take my eyes off the road.

    It’s nonsense that Tesla drivers are somehow less safe because of the screens considering every other driver is staring at their phones.

      Oh yeah, and this definitely doesn’t cause problems. There’s not a single law that forbids this. And yet, looking and messing with a larger version is supposed to be ok? I am not talking out of my ass. I have driven Teslas and it is distracting whether you agree or not. It was the first reason i decided i wouldn’t buy one unless there were buttons. In fact, some people are starting to mod them to put physical buttons back in.

        I never said it doesn’t cause problems. The issue is the inattention whatever the device.

        And I own one and it’s not distracting if you don’t let it distract you. You are talking out of your ass.
