This is a good point. It isn't just about training, though. As people age, reflexes and vision and multitasking suffer. Even highly tech savvy older folks are not going to want the distraction. But, well designed voice systems may be the answer. Myself, I just need to remember to use it. I love the HUD. An expansion of both those functionalities can go a long way. Finding the massage button is impossible, but "Hey BMW, massage my back" works just fine. And despite people seemingly hating gesture control, I like it for changing volume and changing tracks. I can focus on the road.
