MMMMM..Computer controlled veehicles ! I have a daily driver with a drive by wire throttle. I suppose that if it goes wrong I'd just coast to a stop. I have heard that there are common cars out there now that have drive by wire steering and brakes ! Technology is wonderful but this stuff is scary. I'm an old fart and like to "connect" the dots when it comes to steering , brakes and throttle. I'm slowly adjusting because my Cobras throttle IS connected by a wire...a metal one...not an electric one. ha ha ha. Solar Flares affect electronics too.
