I thought we would finally have haptic touchscreens in our devices. There were some experiments in the past, but it never happened outside of niche industry applications.

Makes me a little bit sad, because being able to feel elements is really useful - I can type blind on my Titan 2 phone (which has a real keyboard) and in cars, it would really improve safety.

What would improve car safety is you beeing focused on handling your car and nothing else

Yes, by being able to feel the controls so can focus your eyes on the road in front of you.
