Anytime I need to click on a touch button / non physical button I need to take my eyes off the road so I don’t click on other buttons wrongly… physical buttons in car is the way !
I want jackknife switches for every function, all wired to go chokBZAK and throw sparks at me every time I use my turn signal. Mad science maximalist aesthetics.
jackknife switch
Thanks for the visual. This helps
I'm imagining a dashboard bristling with these, to control everything from door locks to wipers.
Maybe a few big red buttons and flashing toggle buttons too, case depending.
It'd be a horrible experience to drive, which is itself a net benefit.
It takes like 4 switches and a button to get the power into the back to open the trunk, all while you crackle maniacally in the grocery store parking lot. Also it needs to be struck by lightning first.
