I understand the smart watch complained, and the "guess your not using notifications"

But i think the car thing is valid. People driving tired is way more common. iirc, around 20% of car accident happen due to drowsy driving.

So actively suggesting to stop driving is imo the correct thing to do.

I think the author agrees, just that it's a phrasing problem

I wish we lived in a world where

  driver attention system: irregular behavior - unexpected lane drift (possible driver fatigue or distraction)`
Rather than

  Consider taking a break
was the norm

Except that former message takes too long to read, especially if you’re actually driving at the time.

I had the unhappy experience of driving a car with collision warnings. I got 3 in one day. It would be nice after the fact to know what it thought was happening.

Author here! Yup exactly! I don't mind that it's telling me things (well, I do, but that's another post), I just want it to tell me _why_ instead of giving me a weak suggestion with no context so I can make a judgement on how to proceed. Feels like a passive aggressive mom telling you "Maybe try on another outfit" when what she really means is "I think your shirt is horrific and I can't be seen with you in it."

Hello! I really, really liked your article a lot and I'm happy I get to tell it to you! The drawings are just cherry on top.

I absolutely hate these types of UIs. I can't stress enough how much revulsion I feel towards this kind of bullshit.

And we are not even talking yet about the "screen vs buttons in a car" problem.
