On a more serious note, you know those alcohol interlocks that many

morning I saw a news report that MADD, among others want to have them
mandated for ALL cars sold in these United States!

Miataly,
Dennis

I've heard talk of 'black boxes' that will help reconstruct accidents and what happened in the moments preceeding.... gee, let's install a wireless link and then the box can transmit whenever someone speeds. Wouldn't the insurance companies love that!

This just reinforces my decision not to buy a new car, but if all this stuff goes into production eventually all the used cars will have them, too. Sigh........

Just how far away is the Miata from being allowed antique/historical car
plates? <grin> Maybe then we can keep these toys out of it.
