Everything he shows here is accomplished already by a fairly nice set of buttons on my steering wheel. Each button has a unique shape, so finding them without ever looking down is very easy, and my hands never leave the wheel.

What I find hard about in-car UIs are things like entering and editing navigation directions or selecting music to listen to given a 32GB USB stick full of songs.

There's always some horribly designed onscreen keyboard or "iDrive" type knob controller, both of which are quite horrible experiences. To make matters worse, the UI is laggy and unresponsive, and in an effort to make things "easier" onscreen controls frequently dim & disable when not actionable or when the car is moving vs. stationary.
