Why do I always look at the radio display when I could look straight ahead at the info screen?

Anyone else do that, I find it a waste when I always look down at the radio instead of looking straight ahead at the on-board computer display. Anyone had that habit and break it?

Default Always! Same reason I also look at my wrist (not the dash) for the time - habits are hard to break.

My wife makes fun of me every time I do either and she notices.

Default I find that it's the same motion to look away from the road to the radio

as it is to the computer display.

Somehow, it was more natural to touch the stereo and look at the computer display in the A4. Maybe the Symphony stereo is more intuitive.

Default Because..

The radio controls should have been in the same place as the computer controls.. then you wouldn't have to take your hands off the wheel.
