LOL my 67 Camaro may be safer to drive than I ever expected....

Same goes for my son-in-law's '49 Ford coupe. It's sitting in my driveway and I need to move it often. No emergency brake, no windows except front windshield, no wipers... And a loose steering column. Pull the steering wheel towards you and it comes off. He manages to drive it somehow. Oh, it's a chopped roof so it would be hard to crawl out the window opening. But I'll take that car over these remote control things they're making.

Well put. New cars are more like full-scale versions of R/C hobbyists' model vehicles, with the radio control transmitters hidden inside and disguised as normal controls.
