Two things I really don't want in my car: giant screens instead of physical controls, and TikTok.

All the execs at my previous corporate company joined zoom meetings with video on from their drive. Not a care for no mobile devices while driving law

Gross. Mercedes owners want an Apple screen not this gross non-Apple pleb stuff. Let's be honest, if Mercedes made Daimlernet as their exclusive, $100/mo paid communications platform with verified checkmarks they'd get a lot of buyers. Daimlernet would also be useful for Freightliner (a Mercedes product) as a built-in ELD, smog and weight compliance device. A lot of trucking companies would by a Daimlernet radio relay mesh network for guaranteed communication to trucks, and Mercedes could leverage this to bootstrap self-driving vehicles.
Instead we got flossing, angry birds and livestreamed porn.

Quite possibly two of the absolute WORST possible apps to be using while you operate a vehicle. Who the fuck signed off on this?

Ok but did they make tiktok dance videos?

Ah yes, using a dangerous app (TikTok), while doing a dangerous thing (driving a motor vehicle), what could possibly go wrong? Expect r/whatcouldgowrong to start skyrocketing in popularity because of this.
