I'd take that bet. The only controls I use muscle memory for are some of the steering wheel buttons (not all, e.g. I still have to look for the cruise control on/off for my F250) and the stalks. And even then, when I switch between cars I sometimes have to glance to remind myself which functionality the right stalk has. For climate controls and such, I pretty much always glance. The only knob I can reliably hit without a glance is the volume.

Maybe I've just been driving so long that the variety of cars has impeded my ability to develop muscle memory. But I doubt it.



My original comment was flag-killed, the irony of what constitutes a forbidden opinion on HN.
