I'm not going to flame you. Everybody's entitled to have their say.
It's good to see that there are still folks out there that always obey the posted speed limit, use their turn signals as required and always come to a complete stop at every stop sign. And who would never, ever think of doing a burnout on the street.
Nobody else drives my car, so that's not an issue. Put a cage in your car and see just how handy it is every time you want to start the car or bump the motor in the garage.
Why do you think that switch was first installed? Because some idiot forgot that they had a manual transmission and probably did cause an accident when they started it in gear. 'OOPS, I forgot the transmission needs to be disengaged to start the car'. Then some other idiot decided that it was the auto manufacturer's responsibility and so they hired some lawyers to sue the automaker.
Very much like those that are filing against gunmakers and holding them accountable for what people are doing with their guns. So now we'll have fingerprint trigger locks. Very handy for home defense. 'Excuse me sir, could you please step back into the hallway while I try to undo this trigger lock in the dark?'
It all comes back to responsibility. Nobody wants to be responsible. It's always somebody else's fault. I'm very much from the old school in this area. I certainly don't mind accepting the responsibility for the things I do.
Sorry I got so far away from the original topic. If this is going to be discussed any further, maybe we should open another thread and see what others have to say.
