I dont understand why electrically controlled doors are still legal. It is an obvious safety hazard.

  I'm waiting for the accident that was caused by the yoke style steering wheel not being a full ring that can be grabbed.

  There are a lot of crazy things on modern cars that I'm amazed are allowed. Touch screens for important functions, electronic door latches, limited visibility because they have cameras to make up for it..

    Vehicles got heavier, so pillars got thicker (to protect occupants when you inevitably flip your heavier vehicle on its roof), leading to blind spots that were mitigated with collision warning radar (amber light on mirrors when someone is in your blind spot). Backup cams were mandated because people kept running their kids over backing out of the driveway.

  I saw a dude stopped in the middle of the road the other day, he obviously had some kind of technical issue with the car so I asked him if he needed help to push the car to a side street to not block the main road traffic, he told me he couldn't put it in neutral because of the electronic gearbox. When I got home I decided to google it because I couldn't believe it was that dumb, well, turns out it was much much much dumber than I expected: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dz-IxLpWiNc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dz-IxLpWiNc
