We ALL need “kill switches” in our vehicles.

My idea for a kill switch locks the doors activates a self-driving feature that takes the vehicle into the nearest body of water more that 20 feet deep.

the cost of the car should be paid for by the taxpayers, considering the “big picture” cost savings.

It is my understanding that a manual, stick-shift transmission is sufficient protection from carjackers and thieves.

Big trucks have a switch you can throw which kills the power to everything.
Unless you know what’s going on it will not start
