Perhaps all the switches and other controls (other than the steering, accelerator, brakes, indicators and lights) should be disabled when the vehicle is in motion? |

How is changing tracks on a phone any different from changing radio station? |

A radio station is changed using the up/down buttons on the steering wheel and the eyes are only needed to confirm the selected station. Though the rule is about physical interaction. Casting it through the dashboard is not physical interaction. It is distracting but probably less so than holding the device. |

The car radio can be controlled through the steering wheel buttons. Most smartphones can be controlled by spoken commands, and it gets easier all the time as new models are released. The control can even be exercised over the sat-nav function. |
