You can’t make it fool-proof because fools are too damn ingenious.

Make the system fool-proof, and they’ll provide you with a bigger fool.
Eventually, you end up with Elanor Holmes-Norton in a driverless car ...
To: HiJinx
Building something fool proof only seems to build a better fool.

Sheila Jackson-Lee was unavailable. She was testing the new brainless public official robot.

If you’re inventing something fool proof, don’t start testing it with a member of their hall of fame.

A lot of people, including me, would want to know that the STOP button works. Ideally, the car would pull off the traveled portion of the road, before completely shutting down.
To: hometoroost
Why oh why did I know that’s what she’d look like? Maybe the (D) ?
And I can imagine the superior know it all attitude as well.

The same thing happened to her when she was busted on an episode of “Bait Car”!

Yeah, you’d probably want to start with the lesser fools before smoke testing it against the great fool.

Who over the age of five jumps in a vehicle and just starts pushing buttons, let alone in a prototype vehicle? Is it really that hard to figure out what a “kill” switch does? Or was she just drawn to it because it was bright red or something?
To: Tijeras_Slim
That needs to be engraved on a plaque somewhere. Kudos.
To: RegulatorCountry
Interesting choice of words describing her actions as well - "pounded"...
