Any strategies to cope with the MI distracted driving law? (www.michigan.gov)

We're not allowed to touch our phone more than 1 tap when we're driving in Michigan.

I just got off of a 3 hour drive and realized I probably broke the law 10 times. I hate voice commands. Does anyone have a strategy for not being a total criminal while also staying entertained and/or productive during long communtes and trips?

You answered your own question in Your post. Use the voice commands. Dont like the voice commands? Then take the bus.

Like really?! Entertained & productive while operating heavy machinery at high speeds? Give me a break.

If the voice commands work. Google made a change to their voice activated music selection that forces you to physically interact with the phone when you ask for music while driving. It is literally the opposite of safe and helpful. I should test if they ever bothered to change it.
