Really? You advocate teaching your kids how’s to drive a 1974 Dodge first? So that later if they have to drive that Dodge again they’ll know how?

I learned to drive in the 70’s. But I never learned how to drive a Model A. Never had to. Am I worse off as a driver?

Teach your kids how to drive a modern car. Later if they want to drive an antique without airbags, seatbelts, ESC, etc. Then fine. Let them learn.

No, I advocate teaching skills first, then relying on tech, so that if they wind up driving a vehicle without all the fancy tech, they'll know how to drive it.

You do understand that ABS isn't even on all cars manufactured today, some cars have traction control, but many don't, most cars don't have electronic stability control, and automatic braking is brand new tech. Developing skills is far better than relying on tech.

Electronics can fail, then what?
