FYI: EAP treats thumb-wheel adjusting the stereo volume is "driver input"

[ℬête Noire]

I had not seen this tidbit mentioned before, and I happened on this fact accidentally last weekend, so I'm tossing it out there to get more people in-the-know.

EDIT: Of course my thread title has as typo. *facepalm*

It was introduced sometime near the beginning of the 4th quarter last year. Playing with any button will reset the nag timer.

It didn't seem clear to me that adjusting the stereo controls were driving controls.

Yeah this was introduced a while ago. Adjusting the cruise control speed and following distance also counts as driver input for the autopilot nag.

Sure cruise control is obvious. Your music volume?

It’s located on the steering wheel, hence it’s a “steering” control

corollary to this: activating the turn signals does not count as being attentive at the wheel, apparently

I think they just want the car to know that you’re around.
