Hmm, if only his wife was in charge of safety regulations of the USA and could have enacted stronger safety measures against shitty Tesla UI issues.
Who the fuck decides that a touchscreen is a good control for drive vs reverse?

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

If you're even remotely in control of your senses, there's not really any chance of getting it wrong. At least not more than with any other control scheme. This sort of thing doesn't happen to sober people.

Lol no... I drive a manual transmission. I can tell you with my eyes closed what gear I'm in and I can change it to any other gear without opening my eyes.
Touch screens for controlling important functions of a car are a stupid idea.
Well, I can tell you with my eyes closed whether my car goes forward or backward. Which is all I need to know. There's really zero potential for confusion here.
Sober people don't accidentally back up too far when making a 3 point turn? Your foot has never slipped or pressed the wrong pedal? Youve never turned the wheel too far? Never shifted into the wrong gear? You're either a perfect specimen or completely full of shit
I have made all of those mistakes but I was always attentive (and sober) enough to not cause an accident.
