The wiper thing used to be an issue for sure, thankfully now you can use the wheel buttons to do it. Also for turning you really don't need to look at anything. I'm not saying people don't but you don't need to. There are still a few things that are somewhat annoying mainly the defrost/defog but I feel like I look the same amount as I did in my other car to push those buttons as well
The voice commands work as well as anything. It's much easier to push the roller button on the steering wheel and say "turn on defroster" than to manipulate controls (either on a touch screen or non-touch screen interface)
Voice controls are great, unless you have a strong accent it doesn’t understand, a speech impediment, or mute. Which are all things that normally wouldn’t disqualify you from driving a car. Which I feel like should disqualify them from the discussion of physical vs tablets myself.
Fair enough, mate.
