It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Cool tech, but just like steer by wire, I wouldn't trust it in a life or death situation
Many modern cars are moving to steer by wire. Serious question, why wouldn't you trust your life to that when you very likely already do for acceleration and possibly for braking (depending on your vehicle).
In my case, my personal car is still old school or "analog" in those areas. I think that in the case of new cars, manufacturers make so many different models that I can't trust they've put the time into debugging and failure-proofing their software. Even the most reliable car brands have occasional hardware recalls, and software glitches in their media systems are fairly common. I'll need to do more research about what failsafes they have in place, but I'd feel more confident with a mechanical linkage than software
