What about passengers? Everybody ignores those stupid warning lights on the dash, and a governor of 80 mph is insufficient protection for anybody when inexperienced drivers are at the wheel. I guess I'm just missing the big whooptie-damn-do about this "smart" key. As for commenting "Now, if only Ford would come up with the YourKey to keep older dummies from doing the same thing"? I resent that remark.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Angela]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 21st 2009 6:20PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Ford's 'Smart' MyKey Keeps Those Kids From Driving Like Maniacs]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/08/21/fords-smart-mykey-keeps-those-kids-from-driving-like-maniacs/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/08/21/fords-smart-mykey-keeps-those-kids-from-driving-like-maniacs/</guid><description><![CDATA[Easy way to get people to drive more cautiously, everyone must learn to drive in a '63 falcon with the small 6. No stabilizer bar so turns must be made slowly. 4 wheel drum brakes help learning to deal with unstable car behavior and to plan stopping. The little 6 will get you up to traffic speeds but planning and timing must be learned.<br>Maybe over time we can reintroduce the 15 passenger van, a little more efficient than the chopped down tour busses they're using in their place. Over time when we have a pool of people that know how to drive, rather than just disconnected theory because cars do everything for them and are overly forgiving, we can have cars that are durable again and much less expensive since all the bells and whistles can be stripped. I hope we go this direction, otherwise in a couple of generations cars will just be transportation for the wealthy.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ty]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 21st 2009 8:03PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
