Do you pull off the highway to adjust the AC?
First stereotyping, then grasping at straws?
And no, I can adust the AC by feel. Easy to do, and I don't have to swipe on a screen to find an icon.

You could try to make your case without the barbs at others. People might listen better that way.It doesn't surprise me you folks would offer up excuses and deflections for what is essentially unsafe behavior while driving. Looking at a phone or other display, while driving, could be avoided. Why not? We went through a century of vehicular travel without cell phones, and the world did just fine.
I forget, it's all about instant gratification at the expense of responsibility. Silly me.

Stereo-installing.
So you've used the AC enough while driving that you can operate it by feel. Now get in a rental.
The stereos, AC controls and the app in question all follow the same design pattern. Nobody is squawking over stereos and AC controls distracting drivers. This is also why Waze is not a significant distraction to drivers.
I'm sorry that you have hearing problems but that doesn't mean you can

If you need more than a few minutes sitting in your driveway to figure out how the AC controls work so you don't need to look at them afterward, I don't know what to tell you.
And no, the AC controls don't work the same way as an app when you have physical knobs vs. touch-screens. Yes, my vehicles are that old
I'd love to see you prove that, but as you can't, off to the gutter it goes.
The controls do follow the same design pattern. The objective is for a control manipulation to be possible by a normal person within 2 seconds, and an overall control task to take a cumulative time not to exceed 12 seconds. This is achieved by the interface of Waze, and is required of stereos, nav systems, AC controls, etc.
There's nothing to be argued against it there. If I put Waze in a dashboard LCD and rebadged it to "Ford Road Reporter" you wouldn't waste anyone's time with this.

If I understand you correctly, you're talking about engaging in a distracting activity, while driving a car, that can take that long? I must not be reading it right, because there is no way any activity can be developed, much less sanctioned, that would require a driver to divert attention for that long from the real purpose of being behind the steering wheel of a vehicle, while underway. That's just beyond the pale of what would be reasonable.
We have been talking specifically about Waze and not at all about broader cell phone use.As for wasting anyone's time, you could just admit that the use of a cell phone while driving is not defensible the vast majority of the time.
