Car companies should install anti-stupidity devices, maybe a spring loaded boxing glove that knocks the **** out of ya before you pull some stupid **** like that.
if make things idiot proof, you'll just find a bigger idiot
as an aside euro disney had nothing keeping you from jumping on the tracks in front of the trains/coasters, but nobody did.

They have that. On the new cars they all have an engine cover so you dont' see the engine. The only thing you see is a yellow cap that says windsheild washer fluid only. You don't even see the dip stick.

there is no such thing as "SAILOR PROOF"
Don't they give you a card or something that you can show people and say, "Look, it says right here I'm a sailor!"? Seems like that would be proof enough for most people.

When I was attached to Squadron 4 Staff, we all had "Nuclear Incident" Cards, They basically were get out of jail free cards. We could bypass roadblocks checkpoints etc,

Kinda like "Excuse me, officer. I don't have time for you to write me a ticket for going 110 mph with a naked teenage girl in the car. I'm responding to a "Nuclear Incident."?

we're assuming nuclear is refering to some kind of power generation, but perhaps it could apply to the naked teenage girls father, in which case, evading road blocks and tollbooths might be deemed necessary.
