Abstract

A car includes a steering wheel, a controlling system, and a plurality of buttons. The controlling system includes a controlling module, a plurality of signal detecting modules, and a display screen. The display screen is within easy viewing range of the driver. The plurality of buttons are mounted on the steering wheel. The controlling module controls the plurality of signal detecting modules to present different signals to the display screen. The display screen then displays the signals from the signal detecting modules. The controlling module controls the display of different signals on the display screen responding to the operation of page-forward and previous-page buttons.

Claims
