DC rep Holmes-Norton kills driverless car
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/mike...rless-car/

Quote:Well, the ride never happened, because Norton did a particularly good job of testing the car’s bright-red “kill” button — which, as captured by WRC-TV’s cameras, killed the car to the point that it could not proceed with the test ride.

“Oh, no, don’t push it!” an engineer from Carnegie Mellon University cried after Norton pounded the mushroom button. “It shuts everything down.”

Yup. Typical ignorant clown that the left just loves to keep putting into office.

Desiging a kill switch with no way of reversing it is not a good idea. That big button in the middle of the dashboard is just an irresistable shiny object to those who can't control their curiosity.
