    The design of the car heavily influences driver behavior

    One part of the design is the “one touchscreen for everything” - which causes accidents by needless distraction for basic tasks. Our last car also fell victim to this - totaled after a Tesla driver crashed into its side due to doing stuff on the screen instead of looking to the road. I don’t quite understand how those things are still considered road legal in the EU, and still hope we’ll eventually get rules prohibiting this kind of UI, and forcing retrofit of existing cars or banning them from driving.
