I wouldn't want to turn that wheel too much
Why wouldn't I want to turn the steering wheel??? My primary use is google maps traffic while I drive so I can re-route and avoid traffic. Having the phone in a easy to see handsfree location is paramount. Since the phone is on continuously while I drive, keeping it charged is a necessity. I do not do a lot of talking on the phone but if a call comes in, I'll put on the blue tooth headset and answer the call without taking my hands off the steering wheel. The "wireless" charger has eliminated a distractiion of the cord wrapping around the steering column in city driving, which should make it safer. Safety is important to me. I want to maintain my almost perfect driving record-no accidents, tickets/ points since 1972.
