Reply to comment by Kurotan in In-Car Climate Control Design: How It Has Gone Backwards and How to Fix It by nastratin

I remember old Top Gear episode where Jeremy was complaining about this very thing. And that was about 15-20 years ago.

He said that it's not just stupid but dangerous because I need pull my focus away from road to set temperature, or tune radio. Which could all be done with a simple knob or button in older cars.
