Would be lovely, but what I’m afraid is going to happen is that you have to stop in order to change the climate settings because some idiot bean counter told the UX and engineering departments to find a way to save money so they got rid of the climate control module and put it in the infotainment screen. And the passenger can’t even change the song while driving because they got rid of the forward and backward buttons too.
Mandate physical controls for everything that the driver has a reasonable need or desire to touch while driving (climate, seated heats, horn, etc). And then also do what you suggested in addition to that. Can’t let car manufacturers have too much free reign.

I didn’t mean individual driver behavior, I mean ban touchscreens from accepting any inputs at all while driving.
