Thread: Sorry constable, it was the car's fault.

Instead of having a poorly paid Indian taxi driver to blame you'll have a poorly paid Indian IT specialist instead. Will the Dashboard Assistant (TM) play soothing elevator music while you sit there trapped in the wreckage? The possibilities are endless.

Technology is advancing at a phinominal rate , I suppose It's only a matter of time , lets face It who would have thought 25 years ago people would have Sat nav's in there cars , Some of them are pretty sophisticated . I've got a Hema . The only thing wrong with It is , by the time I work out all the things It does , It will be out of date , But Ya roll It on !!.. Jim
