If you are not paying close enough attention to keep a steady speed with your foot on the gas pedal then you should not be behind the wheel of thousands of pounds of metal going down the highway, and keep both hands on the wheel as much as possible
Spoken like someone who rides a bicycle to work, and has never driven more than 50 miles on a single trip.
If you’re going to be that anal about driver capability, any driver over the age of 40 should be passing a physical to validate vision and reflexes, and every driver under the age of 40 should be tested for smartphone addiction.
Both hands on the wheel better not be at “10 and 2” either. That was before airbags would blow your arm through the window.
