CAR and Driver - March 2017

(Tina Sui) #1
complete lockout
technology in your car
and verify that you use
it. Tamperproof and
records are kept.
The Stick solution:
Join tech companies/
manufacturers as
third-party defendants
whenever distracted
driving causes serious
accidents. I think many
jurors today would be
happy to find civil
liability for deep-
pocket purveyors of
electronic distractors
in modern automo-
biles. All vehicles need
to be returned to
“No Data Zones”
while in motion. Lives
depend on it.
—Steven Perry
Hendersonville, NC
I think what you’re
saying is that
it’s all about the
Journey—Ed.

WINGS CLIPPED
I love reading Car and
Driver, but how many
times do we need to
read about Aaron
Robinson talking
about his Cessna
airplane [“Fixing
Vehicles on the Fly,”
December 2016]? I
think it might be time
he explore his passion
and get a job at “I own
a shitty plane
magazine” or “let’s all
flaunt that we wanna
be a real aircraft pilot
magazine.” Enough
already, trade the
crappy Cessna for an
old rusty Z/28 or
something and let’s
talk about cars. I have
no interest in reading
about how duct tape is
holding his aircraft
together so well next
month. Enough
already!
—Whittier Peirce
Danbur y, CT
If the tape fails,
you might not have
to—Ed.
