Does someone know how to enable the phone keypad while driving

![Question](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I found a few posts about the DVD nav being operated while driving.....but none on the phone. On a GS300 w/o NAV and ML, the main functionality that disappears while cars in motion is the phone dial pad as well as the ability to look thru the phone book. I am sure it is speed sensitive as having the car in drive makes no difference, because when at a light or in slow traffic the pad appears while car is briefly stopped and still in gear. That reminds me there is a Message button for FM broadcasts that also disappears when in motion, how does the audio know the car is in motion?? Has anyone disabled this without a big hassle? Thanks
