No need to have any extra action, just sneezing or day dreaming can kill! How can police/government forbid drivers from sneezing or day dreaming? The concept is, be a responsible driver! If you think eating and/or drinking and/or talking and/or putting make up ... etc while driving and/or use your elbow or thigh to drive...... or whatever action is still confident and responsible to yourself and your passengers and other drivers and pedestrians, how can other people stop you?!

it's not like the police gonna catch people taking their phones out and flipping their phones open or unlocking the phone anyways... my point is that they hv this a rule but yet different ways to go in between. they enforcued a rule about driving using a head set... but i think eating while driving, smoking, arguing with the passenger is just as unsafe as talking on the phone... why don't they consider putting a rule on those?

Even for the built-in system, is it possible to just ignore for what the change is and it will still do it's own routing without any button needs to be pressed?

For the flip/slide style phone, as someone already said, can you simply pre-flip/slide the phone and put in on a car mount, set it as stand-by mode, so in case there is any incoming call you can just simply press any button once to answer it?

In case any phone doesn't come with speaker feature, people would need to use a corded or bluetooth head set anyways. So you can keep your flip/slide phone in "close" position anyways. Why it is a problem?!

That's true too, need to take out phone first, unlock and then dial....
So the best is to NOT dial any phone...only receive call then it's truly "one touch".

Regarding GPS software... ...

the navigation came with the car when it was purchased.... so i dont think u can change it? but i don't wanna change my navigation to another one with all the installation and stuff just because of this new rule

"""usually people who doesn't hv flip/slide phones would need to unlock their phones first... that's already consider as one touch right? one touch to unlock another touch to speed dial"""

you can deactivate the "automatic keylock" function, therefore you don't need to unlock the phone before the one touch dial.

lucky, i am using a germin gps and doesn't has this problem, maybe you should check with your gps mauf. and see is there any software update to eliminate this problem.

Regarding GPS software...time to get a tom tom

I've been using different GPS devices and they'll all automatically re-calculate the routes if needed, without any button needed to be pressed again. Maybe it's about the price and how latest version ...

it's actually build in with the car navigation.... if there is a change on the route... then it will re-calculate but it will also offer u the direct route or other options.... that's one problem. another problem is, they say one touch dial right? usually people who doesn't hv flip/slide phones would need to unlock their phones first... that's already consider as one touch right? one touch to unlock another touch to speed dial

I am using Tom Tom navigation and it never asks me to press a button once the destination is set. And that's done before take off the trip. The only time I press something during the trip is that when I want to change day/night colour scheme. But I do it as passenger, not as the driver.
