the more information people have, the more they think people need to be sheltered and protected from the world.

The things we used to do as kids on bikes would have the local nanny police today running and screaming to ban bicycles. Seriously, i did a 360 in mid air and then unfortunately landed square on one of my legs. I got up and walked away. Nowadays some lunatic overprotective dolt would force me to sit not moving while they called for an ambulance.

People are not cynical enough about new so called 'safety' features. Even today, the average person doesn't believe an airbag can murder a human being, even though it has happened countless times.

The more tech in a car, the more can go wrong. My mothers Murano has developed a flaw whereby the driver side window refuses to go all the way up. It was replaced once, and then a year later started happening again.

my hand crank windows have never refused to stay fully closed.
