Two phone support on Apple Car Play

I have my IPhone 8+ connected to my 2021 Kia Seltos Apple Car Play. My question is that I would like to connect my wife's IPhone 12X to the same Apple Car Play but I can't find any info on any device conflict that might occur if we are both in the car with our phones. Connection now is done via wireless. Any suggestions

I realize that only one of them would be supported when driving. I guess what I really wanted to figure out is that if my wife is driving my car alone and wants to have the function provide by Apple Car Play on her phone, and then if I am driving alone and wanted to have the function on my phone, is there a way that Apple Car Play would recognize which phone it was supporting so all the functions, (maps, contacts, etc), for that phone would be displayed and supported.

Kind of like an internal toggle switch between phones.

I am sure I am making this more complicated than necessary.
