You'd think they absolutely would include things like the level of driver distraction required to perform basic actions like climate or audio control, etc; things like field of view and size of blind spots should also apply. Using your phone while driving is proven to dramatically increase risk of accident. That should negatively apply for all touch screens.

The funny thing is most governments are banning the use of a phones while driving entirely, while it remains perfectly legal to use the cars touch screens, that also force you to take your eyes off the road, because they're built in...
