I don't agree with any of the posters in this thread advocating that India become a Hindu state. But your viewpoint is also troubling for me. Do you not think there is an undercurrent of theocracy in Islam? Do you think that there is n

Hell, it needs to be better than you with a "train is coming, I'm going to slow down" driver assistance. If you tell me that no such driver assistance exists, just apply it to scenarios where it exists, like lane keep assists
