There are people worried about the day when cars will drive themselves and the fun of driving will be gone.

For these high end cars that can take turns at formerly unimaginable speeds, the computers have already been in control for some time. As the turn is made the computers go into high gear fine-tuning the suspension, breaking, etc.

The person at the wheel that thinks he is taking those turns is no different than the baby in the backseat with the fake dashboard, steering wheel, and plastic horn.

My Scion FRS really helps you keep from getting in trouble when you try to drift. But the REALLY cool thing is that with a push of a button you turn the whole system off and drift to your heart’s content.

You gotta know what you’re doing though. You CAN get in trouble with that system turned off.
