Most of the time that these things are tested, demonstrates that
talking on a hands free phone is as distracting as using a hand held.
It is not your hands that are distracted, it is your mind.
I am really surprised that these "smart" dash boards are legal.
If you are trying to set the options on the in car computer, you might
as well be driving from the trunk. Even fiddling with a radio that you
have to see to set is plenty distracting. That is why they invented
the push button radio and the "wonder bar" in the first place.

My caddys has wonder bar radios. Also my buicks had Speed setters where you could see the needle where you wanted and I'd the speedo needle hit it. The thing would buzzzzz. Better to use the cruise control.

My wife's Honda CRV has built in GPS. You have to be in park to set it...
