I am amazed at how clever cars and trucks have become in Ontario.
I also did not realize that Premier McLiar together with Police Commissar Fantino had altered thing so said vehicles could obtain drivers' licences.
The testing clearly needs to be stiffened up though.

This is obviously the case as in news report after news report I am reading or hearing that ' the car lost control.'
Now the only way the car could lose control would be if it was doing the driving! :vader:

Nope. Sitting at home typing with one hand because of gout in left wrist.
I do not even have a cell phone now.

Saw a news report the other day that showed over 1/3 of drivers with GPS units on the dashboard are overly distracted while programming them.

You misunderstand Drifter's sense of humour. The head cop in the Province was talking about the "car" losing control. Last time I looked, cars had drivers that controlled them. The car does nothing without the driver, but I guess the top cop is very willing to blame the car only....

Oh I understood, I just didn't realise if there was background information I was supposed to know :p :

The thread title sounds a bit weird.
