    Similar to Android Auto having a giant Search bar across the map page. You're not allowed to use it when driving, but it's always there in the way.

    Weird, that must be some market-specific rules? I can search on Android Auto's Google Maps while my car is in motion in Sweden.

    I don't usually do it, because I'm not an idiot, but it still lets me do it.

    You're probably right about it being market dependent rules. I have always been annoyed by the search bar not only being useless to me, it pushes the "center" of the map to the right side of the screen, so the symbol indicating your position is never actually centered.
