Good man yourself! I still can't get my head around the fact that
companies fail to provide safety switches that either hand over
the control (to humans) or at least disable the software based
components completely by switching the machine off.
I always try to convince people (who don't program themselves)
that they shouldn't trust software, especially when it comes to
safety.
Well, it seems like your old Dodge (?) is still the safest option.
