There are not legally binding regulations to my knowledge that say what you have to put on a steering wheel. Many cars don't have airbags so it's not really a problem. In any case i'd take computer over airbag anyway. Stick with seatbelts.

As for changing settings on the fly being dangerous, well if you've got this sort of money to burn on an in car computer then you're probably a reasonably clued up driver.

Remember that this isn't going to be marketed to the safety conscious public is it? It's like Dell don't invite all their elderly customers to overclock the hell out of their Inspirons. And why would any safety watchdog bother to review it? Their consumer demographic isn't likely to cover it.

Perhaps on Top Gear, but they're hardly going to worry about safety now, are they?]]>Jul 23rd 2008 5:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/23/really-really-tweak-your-ride-the-unidrive-has-arrived/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/23/really-really-tweak-your-ride-the-unidrive-has-arrived/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airbag#Airbags_become_mandatory]]>Jul 23rd 2008 5:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/23/really-really-tweak-your-ride-the-unidrive-has-arrived/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/23/really-really-tweak-your-ride-the-unidrive-has-arrived/

I also have no concept of soccer (futbol, football) either. I mean, 90 minutes for a 1 to 1 game? sheesh, give me a gun so i can shoot myself.

Just pick up a copy of "How Engines Work" or similar title and read for 1-4 hours (depending upon your memory abilities).

HAHA Wrecks,Fires, and strategy? Does those 3 words belong in the same sentence. Maybe the "Nazcur" fans meant Wrecks, Fires, and Beer Bongs.
