Hard disagree. The facts are that phone use is a far more likely cause of death than having touch screen controls. To say “it can’t be regulated” is a cop out. It may not be able to be “perfectly” regulated, but the greater impact on preventing deaths (which is the goal here) is much much much greater by limiting phone use while driving than forcing cars to have physical buttons. I mean, what percentage of phone users are knowledgeable enough to root and flash a phone? 0.1%?
That’s not as feasible as regulating how cars are made, because many phones can be rooted and flashed for full user control, unlike most cars.
Touch screen controls shouldn’t be in cars regardless of all the above.
