I change from D to N every time a stop. This is an absolute requirement to perform a smooth stop in any car that has an automatic transmission or an EV that has creep. So, I for one, am VERY excited about the drive direction selector on the steering column.
I test drove a MB E350 this past weekend, and found it very intuitive to use. I did not have a problem with accidentally touching it. Now, the one thing that DID bother me was that the left hand stalk for the turn signal was uncomfortably/unfamiliarly low due to the cruise control stalk above it. I prefer the Toyota solution (stalk on lower right) or the GM solution (buttons on the steering wheel) for cruise control.
