Yes. Unreadable font/icon is dangerous during driving.

Many Ford, GM, Kia/Hyundai and Porsche cars on the road today have this exact same "dangerous" issue. Instead of recalling the cars, they filed an inconsequential non-compliance petition so that they don't have to fix it.

Only Tesla could fix it. GM, Porsche, Kia/Hyundai and Ford couldn't. Their cars remain "dAngErOUs".

I'm not so sure it's a safety improvement, though. To make the text bigger, they got rid of the icon.
