On glass cockpits - in autos

Seems to this old guy, the plethora of push buttons, driver alerts, cruise controls, radio and wi fi and . . . springing up in auto ' cockpits' is starting to cause the distraction and scan issues to change the accident rate ( no good data yet that I can find ) and for the same reason noted in aircraft.

Sometimes read a story about a crook trying to steal a car which has a manual transmission. or ' distracted ' driving causing deadly accidents.

To err is human- to really up takes a computer . . still true.
