You can play games while driving in a Tesla vehicle ... is this okay?

Speaking of Tesla's electric car, multimedia performance including games is also attractive ... but it was confirmed overseas that some games can be played even while driving.

テスラ車両で運転中にゲームプレイができる…これっていいの?

Of course I concentrate on steering wheel judgment while driving, but on the road I see cars that may be messing around with fluttering and smartphones. To be honest, I can't see how I drive with fluttering on the left and fluttering on the right. If it becomes a game rather than a smartphone, we will face a more serious crisis.

The New York Times and The Verge have confirmed that Tesla's Model 3 was able to play games such as "Sky Force Reloaded," "Solitaire," and "The Battle of Polytopia." Even if you look at the above image, you can see that the game can be started while driving. Why is this possible?

This phenomenon has been confirmed on Tesla vehicles that have undergone a software update last year. Before the gameplay, the question "Are you a passenger?" Is displayed, but even if the driver agrees to this, the gameplay can be performed normally.

NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration), which has jurisdiction over such issues, has told Reuters that it is currently in talks with Tesla. I'm not sure at this point if this issue is due to a bug or the intended design, but I'd like to see the features that put the driver at risk fixed as soon as possible.
