Study Finds That Buttons in Cars Are Safer and Quicker to Use Than Touchscreens

Now where do I, nor the link, advocate for ignoring accidents to other people. In fact the goal is to actually lessen them which I and others advocate is not the actual goal of people pursing some of these regulations. Control and power seems to be the control. In the case of DUI laws in the US it seems to be primary born out of the desire to get around 4th amendment search provisions not about safety

I fail to see how advocating for very harsh punishment for people that cause accidents to other people, including prison and revocation of driving license has been twisted here to be something that is illogical and disregarding to others.

I also fail to understand why a person should not have the responsibility upon buying a vehicle to understand how to operate it safely, no matter if the interface is a Button or Touch screen. Do we give a pass to someone if they were fumbling with buttons? It is insanity to me how much society has drifted away from personal responsibility to everything being everyone else's fault

I did not said that you advocated "ignoring accidents". You was against regulation against making it safer, with argument that punishing those who make mistakes or cause accidents harder is better option.

Then you created dichotomy between "empathy" and rationality, while responding to person accusing you of missing both.

Then you literally made strawman arguing I wrote something else then I wrote.
