Most new cars already come with seat belt reminders, fortunately they can be turned off with a quick tweak. They make sense for the forgetful among us, so is a bit of a non-issue. Tire pressure monitors make sense, caribbean cruises and vacations as do stronger rear seats to offer a safe anchor for the child seat ISOFIX attachments and labeling can always be removed.
The main problem comes from the gear shift indicator. If Europeans drove on tracks and wanted the ultimate 0-60 time, a shift indicator would be ideal. As they drive on narrow, busy roads, it's a little caribbean cruises and vacations superfluous. The EU's idea is to encourage maximum gas mileage and driving efficiency. The reality is an inflexible annoyance that has no idea of what s going on around you.

As I powered away from junctions or dropped down a gear to overtake, the Citroen didn t like it. A little light appeared on the dash telling me to change up. When we hit the mountains and damp roads, I knew I had to be in third, but the car thought I should be in fourth. A negative camber on a poor visibility corner, I chose third again, the car wanted fourth. caribbean cruises and vacations No way!
It was only an innate stubbornness and knowledge that I was right that prevented me from changing up when being told to. I knew what was safe for the condition and what was not, the car didn t appear to. Which is the problem with these systems. Only the Mark 1 brain can calculate what s going on around you, the conditions, traffic caribbean cruises and vacations and the myriad of other considerations for driving safely. A computer can only do so much.
